چکیده

The aim of this paper is to extend the approximate quasi-interpolation on a uniform grid by dilated shifts of a smooth and rapidly decaying function on a uniform grid to scattered data quasi-interpolation. It is shown that high order approximation of smooth functions up to some prescribed accuracy is possible, if the basis functions, which are centered at the scattered nodes, are multiplied by suitable polynomials such that their sum is an approximate partition of unity. For Gaussian functions we propose a method to construct the approximate partition of unity and describe the application of the new quasi-interpolation approach to the cubature of multi-dimensional integral operators.

Analytic Solution for Hypersonic Flow Past a Slender Elliptic Cone Using Second-Order Perturbation Approximations

An approximate analytical solution is obtained for hypersonic flow past a slender elliptic cone using second-order perturbation techniques in spherical coordinate systems. The analysis is based on perturbations of hypersonic flow past a circular cone aligned with the free stream, the perturbations stemming from the small cross-section eccentricity. By means of hypersonic approximations for the ...

Toward Approximate Moving Least Squares Approximation with Irregularly Spaced Centers

By combining the well known moving least squares approximation method and the theory of approximate approximations due to Maz’ya and Schmidt we are able to present an approximate moving least squares method which inherits the simplicity of Shepard’s method along with the accuracy of higher-order moving least squares approximations. In this paper we focus our interest on practical implementation...

Terrain Modeling using Voronoi Hierarchies

We present a new algorithm for terrain modeling based on Voronoi diagrams and Sibson’s interpolant. Starting with a set of scattered data sites in the plane with associated function values defining a height field, our algorithm constructs a top-down hierarchy of smooth approximations. We use the convex hull of given sites as domain for our hierarchical representation. Sibson’s interpolant is us...

Multivariate Polynomial Interpolation and the Lifting Scheme with an Application to Scattered Data Approximation

This thesis deals with generalized inverses, multivariate polynomial interpolation and approximation of scattered data. Moreover, it covers the lifting scheme, which basically links the aforementioned topics. For instance, determining filters for the lifting scheme is connected to multivariate polynomial interpolation. More precisely, sets of interpolation sites are required that can be interpo...

Exponential Models: Approximations for Probabilities

Welch & Peers (1963) used a root-information prior to obtain posterior probabilities for a scalar parameter exponential model and showed that these Bayes probabilities had the confidence property to second order asymptotically. An important undercurrent of this indicates that the constant information reparameterization provides location model structure, for which the confidence property ...
