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:

    This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    Who set this ancient quarrel new abroach?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
