Spline Method of Interpolationhttp://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
What is Interpolation ? Given (x0,y0), (x1,y1), …… (xn,yn), find the value of ‘y’ at a value of ‘x’ that is not given. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
Interpolants Polynomials are the most common choice of interpolants because they are easy to: • Evaluate • Differentiate, and • Integrate. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
Why Splines ? http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
Why Splines ? Figure : Higher order polynomial interpolation is a bad idea http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu
