| In mathematics, '''linear interpolation''' is a method of [[curve fitting]] using [[linear polynomial]]s.
| |
| | |
| ==Linear interpolation between two known points==
| |
| [[Image:Linear interpolation visualisation.svg|thumb|In this geometric visualisation, the value at the green circle multiplied by the distance between the red and blue circles is equal to the sum of the value at the red circle multiplied by the distance between the green and blue circles, and the value at the blue circle multiplied by the distance between the green and red circles.]]
| |
| If the two known points are given by the coordinates <math>\scriptstyle(x_0,y_0)</math> and <math>\scriptstyle(x_1,y_1)</math>, the '''linear interpolant''' is the straight line between these points. For a value ''x'' in the interval <math>\scriptstyle(x_0, x_1)</math>, the value ''y'' along the straight line is given from the equation
| |
| | |
| :<math>\frac{y - y_0}{x - x_0} = \frac{y_1 - y_0}{x_1 - x_0}</math>
| |
| | |
| which can be derived geometrically from the figure on the right. It is a special case of [[Polynomial interpolation#Constructing the interpolation polynomial|polynomial interpolation]] with ''n'' = 1.
| |
| | |
| Solving this equation for ''y'', which is the unknown value at ''x'', gives
| |
| | |
| :<math>y = y_0 + (y_1-y_0)\frac{x - x_0}{x_1-x_0} </math>
| |
| | |
| which is the formula for linear interpolation in the interval <math>\scriptstyle(x_0,x_1)</math>. Outside this interval, the formula is identical to [[linear extrapolation]].
| |
| | |
| This formula can also be understood as a weighted average. The weights are inversely related to the distance from the end points to the unknown point; the closer point has more influence than the farther point. Thus, the weights are <math>\frac{x-x_0}{x_1-x_0}</math> and <math>\frac{x_1-x}{x_1-x_0}</math>, which are normalized distances between the unknown point and each of the end points.
| |
| | |
| ==Interpolation of a data set==
| |
| [[Image:Interpolation example linear.svg|thumb|right|300px|Linear interpolation on a data set (red points) consists of pieces of linear interpolants (blue lines).]] | |
| Linear interpolation on a set of data points (x<sub>0</sub>, y<sub>0</sub>), (x<sub>1</sub>, y<sub>1</sub>), ..., (x<sub>n</sub>, y<sub>n</sub>) is defined as the concatenation of linear interpolants between each pair of data points. This results in a [[Continuous function|continuous curve]], with a discontinuous derivative (in general), thus of [[differentiability class]] <math>C^0</math>.
| |
| | |
| ==Linear interpolation as approximation==
| |
| | |
| Linear interpolation is often used to approximate a value of some [[Function (mathematics)|function]] ''f'' using two known values of that function at other points. The ''error'' of this approximation is defined as
| |
| | |
| :<math>R_T = f(x) - p(x) \,\!</math>
| |
| | |
| where ''p'' denotes the linear interpolation [[polynomial]] defined above
| |
| | |
| :<math>p(x) = f(x_0) + \frac{f(x_1)-f(x_0)}{x_1-x_0}(x-x_0). \,\!</math>
| |
| | |
| It can be proven using [[Rolle's theorem]] that if ''f'' has a continuous second derivative, the error is bounded by
| |
| | |
| :<math>|R_T| \leq \frac{(x_1-x_0)^2}{8} \max_{x_0 \leq x \leq x_1} |f''(x)|. \,\!</math>
| |
| | |
| As you see, the approximation between two points on a given function gets worse with the second derivative of the function that is approximated. This is intuitively correct as well: the "curvier" the function is, the worse the approximations made with simple linear interpolation.
| |
| | |
| ==Applications==
| |
| | |
| Linear interpolation is often used to fill the gaps in a table. Suppose that one has a table listing the population of some country in 1970, 1980, 1990 and 2000, and that one wanted to estimate the population in 1994. Linear interpolation is an easy way to do this.
| |
| | |
| The basic operation of linear interpolation between two values is so commonly used in [[computer graphics]] that it is sometimes called a '''lerp''' in that field's jargon. The term can be used as a [[verb]] or [[noun]] for the operation. e.g. "[[Bresenham's algorithm]] lerps incrementally between the two endpoints of the line."
| |
| | |
| Lerp operations are built into the hardware of all modern computer graphics processors. They are often used as building blocks for more complex operations: for example, a [[bilinear interpolation]] can be accomplished in three lerps. Because this operation is cheap, it's also a good way to implement accurate [[lookup table]]s with quick lookup for [[smooth function]]s without having too many table entries.
| |
| | |
| ==Extensions==
| |
| | |
| ===Accuracy===
| |
| | |
| If a [[differentiability class|''C<sup>0</sup>'']] function is insufficient, for example if the process that has produced the data points is known be smoother than ''C<sup>0</sup>'', it is common to replace linear interpolation with [[spline interpolation]], or even [[polynomial interpolation]] in some cases.
| |
| | |
| ===Multivariate===
| |
| | |
| Linear interpolation as described here is for data points in one spatial dimension. For two spatial dimensions, the extension of linear interpolation is called [[bilinear interpolation]], and in three dimensions, [[trilinear interpolation]]. Notice, though, that these interpolants are no longer [[linear functions]] of the spatial coordinates, rather products of linear functions; this is illustrated by the clearly non-linear example of [[bilinear interpolation]] in the figure below. Other extensions of linear interpolation can be applied to other kinds of [[polygon mesh|mesh]] such as triangular and tetrahedral meshes, including [[Bézier surface]]s. These may be defined as indeed higher dimensional [[piecewise linear function]] (see second figure below).

| |
| [[Image:Piecewise linear function2D.svg|right|thumbnail|A piecewise linear function in two dimensions (top) and the convex polytopes on which it is linear (bottom).]]
| |
| | |
| ==History==
| |
| | |
| Linear interpolation has been used since antiquity for filling the gaps in tables, often with [[astronomy|astronomical]] data. It is believed that it was used by [[Babylonian astronomy|Babylonian astronomers]] and [[Babylonian mathematics|mathematicians]] in [[Seleucid Empire|Seleucid]] [[Mesopotamia]] (last three centuries BC), and by the [[Greek astronomy|Greek astronomer]] and [[Greek mathematics|mathematician]], [[Hipparchus]] (2nd century BC). A description of linear interpolation can be found in the ''[[Almagest]]'' (2nd century AD) by [[Ptolemy]].
| |
| | |
| ==Programming language support==
| |
| Many libraries and [[shading language]]s have a 'lerp' helper-function, returning an interpolation between two inputs (v0,v1) for a parameter (t) in the range [0, 1]:
| |
| <source lang="Cpp">
| |
| float lerp(float v0, float v1, float t) {
| |
| return v0+(v1-v0)*t;
| |
| }
| |
| | |
| // alternatively
| |
| float lerp(float v0, float v1, float t) {
| |
| return v0*(1-t)+v1*t;
| |
| }
| |
| </source>
| |
| This function is used for [[alpha blending]] (the parameter 't' is the 'alpha value'), and the formula may be extended to blend multiple components of a vector (such as spatial x,y,z axes, or r,g,b colour components) in parallel.
