A general method is proposed to select the number and arrangement of horizontal and vertical sections of a surface sufficient to describe this surface by splines of two variables with an accuracy sufficient from the technological point of view. An analytical review is given to methods that can be used to solve the problem posed (spline-interpolation, spline-interlineation of functions, R-functions, the theory of polynomial operator interpolation). The results of a computation experiment are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
