Interpolation Methods

One Dimension

• linear
• piecewise cubic
• cubic spline (natural or clamped)
• Chebyshev
• arbitrary order polynomials (Neville's method)
• polynomial coefficients (efficient Vandermonde solver)
• end-point cubic Hermite

Two Dimensions, Regular Grid

• linear
• piecewise cubic
• Chebyshev

N-Dimensions, Scattered Points

• radial basis functions (any choice of function)
• Shepard

Basic Usage

See the tutorial for more complete examples.

using BasicInterpolators, ForwardDiff

#some data to interpolate
x = [-1, 0.5, 2, 3]
y = [1, 3, -0.5, 0]

#a linear interpolation struct
p = LinearInterpolator(x, y)

#interpolate at one point
p(2.5)

#interpolate at lots of points
p.(LinRange(-1, 3, 100))

#compute the derivative dy/dx
ForwardDiff.derivative(p, 1.0)

#make an interpolator that doesn't check boundaries (allows extrapolation)
p = LinearInterpolator(x, y, NoBoundaries())
