The approach is to predict petrophysical properties in the laboratory on the basis of physical rock datasets, which include the formation factor, viscosity, permeability, and molecular composition. However, this approach does not consider the effect of spatial distribution of the calibration data on the interpolation result. This study proposes a new RBF interpolation approach based on the Freedman's RBF interpolation approach, by which the unit basis functions are uniformly populated in the space domain. The inverse results of the two approaches are comparatively analyzed by using our datasets. We determine that although the interpolation effects of the two approaches are equivalent, the new approach is more flexible and beneficial for reducing the number of basis functions when the database is large, resulting in simplification of the interpolation function expression. However, the predicted results of the central data are not sufficiently satisfied when the data clusters are far apart.展开更多

Firstly, based on the compactly supported radial basis function, the paper makes the complex quadratic function (Multiquadric, MQ for short) to be transformed and proposes a class of compactly supported MQ function. Secondly, the paper describes a method that interpolates discrete motion capture data to solve the motion vectors of the interpolation points and they are used in facial expression reconstruction. Finally, according to this characteris- tic of the uneven distribution of the face markers, the markers are numbered and grouped in accordance with the density level, and then be interpolated in line with each group. The approach not only ensures the accuracy of the deformation of face local area and smoothness, but also reduces the time complexity of computing.展开更多

In order to avoid these difficulties, we present a fitting based on radial basis functions satisfying side conditions by least squares, although compared with interpolation the method loses some accuracy, it reduces the computational cost largely. Since the fitting accuracy and the non-singularity of coefficient matrix in normal equation are relevant to the uniformity of chosen centers of the fitted RBE we present a choice method of uniform centers. Numerical results confirm the fitting efficiency.展开更多

Different from many other approaches,the nonstandard singular basis functions are defined from some generalised Birkhoff interpolation problems through explicit inversion of some prototypical fractional initial value problem (FIVP) with a smooth source term. As such,the singularity of the new basis can be tailored to that of the singular solutions to a class of time-fractional PDEs,leading to spectrally accurate approximation. It also provides the acceptable solution to more general singular problems.展开更多

The IRBFANNs hybridize the advantages of the artificial neural networks and the neural networks integration approach. Three experimental projects under different sampling densities are carried out to study the performance of the proposed IRBFANNs-based interpolation method. This novel method is compared with six peer spatial interpolation methods based on the root mean square error and visual evaluation of the distribution maps of Mn elements. The experimental results show that the proposed method performs better in accuracy and stability. Moreover, the proposed method can provide more details in the spatial distribution maps than the compared interpolation methods in the cases of sparse sampling density.展开更多

It's of the form|f(x) - s(x)|≤(Cd)c/d||f||h where C, c are constants, h is the Gaussian function, s is the interpolating function, and d is called fill distance which, roughly speaking, measures the spacing of the points at which interpolation occurs. This error bound gets small very fast as d → 0. The constants C and c are very sensitive. A slight change of them will result in a huge change of the error bound. The number c can be calculated as shown in [9]. However, C cannot be calculated, or even approximated. This is a famous question in the theory of radial basis functions. The purpose of this paper is to answer this question.展开更多

The motivation was to utilize the good interpolation features and straightforward computations for UWB antenna simulations. Numerical results were obtained from the cases of the cavity resonance problem, a bowtie and a Sierpinski bowtie antenna. Comparisons with an existing TDFEM approach employed linear temporal basis functions show good agreement to demonstrate the validity of the present schemes. The TDFEM with 2-step Lagrange interpolation as the temporal basis functions achieves better numerical results with only a small increase to run time and memory use in terms of the relative errors of the resonant frequency in the cavity for the transverse electric mode and the radiation patterns of the bowtie antenna.展开更多

文摘In this paper,general interpolating isogeometric boundary node method(IIBNM)and isogeometric boundary element method(IBEM)based on parameter space are proposed for 2D elasticity problems.In both methods,the integral cells and elements are defined in parameter space,which can reproduce the geometry exactly at all the stages.In IIBNM,the improved interpolating moving leastsquare method(IIMLS)is applied for field approximation and the shape functions have the delta function property.The Lagrangian basis functions are used for field approximation in IBEM.Thus,the boundary conditions can be imposed directly in both methods.The shape functions are defined in 1D parameter space and no curve length needs to be computed.Besides,most methods for the treatment of the singular integrals in the boundary element method can be applied in IIBNM and IBEM directly.Numerical examples have demonstrated the accuracy of the proposed methods.
