To install this package simply type in the REPL:
using Pkg
Pkg.add("PiecewiseLinearApprox")
The package performs piecewise linear interpolation over an arbitrary number of dimensions. There are only two functions that need mentioning. The first function computes a set of nodes spaced uniformly over a specified domain for a variable.
nodes = piecewise_linear_nodes(n,domain)
where n
is an integer representing the desired number of nodes and domain
is a 1D array containing the upper and lower values for the domain. If no domain is specified, then it defaults to [1.0,-1.0].
To evaluate the piecewise linear approximation at an arbitrary point in the domain we use the command
y_hat = piecewise_linear_evaluate(y,nodes,point)
where y
is a multidimensional array, nodes
is a tuple of 1D-arrays or an array of 1D-arrays, and point
is a 1D array.
If point
resides outside the domain in any dimension, then linear extrapolation in that dimension is performed.
