Post subject: | Requred Number of Nodes in Akima |
Regarding to your manual (VB6) 5 nodes are required for a Akima spline interpolant; regarding to literature 4 should be sufficient. Is it possible to run the alglib Akima with just 4 nodes? Code: ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'This subroutine builds Akima spline interpolant INPUT PARAMETERS: X - spline nodes, array[0..N-1] Y - function values, array[0..N-1] N - points count, N>=5 |

I've studied algorithm one more time, and - yes, it is possible. Akima spline with N=4 will become parabolic spline (or something like this), and everything should work. BTW, newer versions of ALGLIB will throw exception for N=4 so you will have to comment out line which performs check for N being >=5. |

BTW, I've added support for N=2...4 to issues tracker, so it will appear in 3.8.0 |
