TPTITLE:Multivariate Polynomial Interpolation
TPABSTRACT:Multivariate data interpolation is a well studied problem, with common<nl>solutions including things like thin plate splines.  However, polynomial<nl>solutions are usually not used, since they often create terrible<nl>surfaces.  The Least is a multivariate polynomial interpolation method<nl>devised by de Boor and Ron that has much better shape properties.<nl>In this talk, I will review the polynomial Least, and I will explore<nl>why the Least (usually) creates polynomials with good shape.<nl>
