  2. Interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpolation

    The simplest interpolation method is to locate the nearest data value, and assign the same value. In simple problems, this method is unlikely to be used, as linear interpolation (see below) is almost as easy, but in higher-dimensional multivariate interpolation, this could be a favourable choice for its speed and simplicity.

  3. Interpolation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpolation_theory

    Bower (1889) further developed this theory and renamed it the Interpolation Theory. The theory was later supported by Overton (1893), Scott (1896), Strasburger (1897), Williams (1904), and others. The gradual evolution of an independent, sporophyte phase was viewed by Bower as being closely related to the transition from aquatic to terrestrial ...

    One of the largest and most diverse uses of the intercalation process by the early 2020s is in lithium-ion electrochemical energy storage, in the batteries used in many handheld electronic devices, mobility devices, electric vehicles, and utility-scale battery electric storage stations.

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  7. Nearest-neighbor interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nearest-neighbor_interpolation

    Nearest-neighbor interpolation (also known as proximal interpolation or, in some contexts, point sampling) is a simple method of multivariate interpolation in one or more dimensions. Interpolation is the problem of approximating the value of a function for a non-given point in some space when given the value of that function in points around ...

  8. Polynomial interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_interpolation

    In other words, the interpolation polynomial is at most a factor (L + 1) worse than the best possible approximation. This suggests that we look for a set of interpolation nodes that makes L small. In particular, we have for Chebyshev nodes : L ≤ 2 π log ⁡ ( n + 1 ) + 1. {\displaystyle L\leq {\frac {2}{\pi }}\log(n+1)+1.}

  9. Lebesgue constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebesgue_constant

    In other words, the interpolation polynomial is at most a factor Λ n (T ) + 1 worse than the best possible approximation. This suggests that we look for a set of interpolation nodes with a small Lebesgue constant. The Lebesgue constant can be expressed in terms of the Lagrange basis polynomials:
