Cubic Hermite Spline - Interpolating A Data Set

Interpolating A Data Set

A data set, for, can be interpolated by applying the above procedure on each interval, where the tangents are chosen in a sensible manner, meaning that the tangents for intervals sharing endpoints are equal. The interpolated curve then consists of piecewise cubic Hermite splines, and is globally continuously differentiable in .

The choice of tangents is non-unique, and there are several options available.

Famous quotes containing the words data and/or set:

    To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it—all my life.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    I think it better that in times like these
    A poet’s mouth be silent, for in truth
    We have no gift to set a statesman right.
