Higher-order polynomial approximation

Resumo

A new approach to polynomial higher-order approximation (smoothing) based on the basic elements method (BEM) is proposed. A BEM polynomial of degree n is defined by four basic elements specified on a three-point grid: x₀ + α < x₀ < x₀ + β, αβ <0. Formulas for the calculation of coefficients of the polynomial model of order 12 were derived. These formulas depend on the interval length, continuous parameters α and β, and the values of f^(m)(x₀+ν), ν = α, β, 0, m = 0,3. The application of higher-degree BEM polynomials in piecewise-polynomial approximation and smoothing improves the stability and accuracy of calculations when the grid step is increased and reduces the computational complexity of the algorithms.
