Radial Basis Function Interpolation in MATLAB

Radial Basis Function (RBF) interpolation is a powerful tool for multidimensional interpolation, offering smooth and accurate results. In MATLAB, implementing RBF interpolation is straightforward with the built-in functions and some additional steps. This guide will guide you through the concepts of RBF interpolation and demonstrate how to use it in MATLAB.

What is Radial Basis Function Interpolation?

RBF interpolation is a method used to approximate functions that are defined by a set of scattered data points. The idea is to create a smooth surface that passes through the given data points using radial basis functions as the building blocks. These functions depend only on the distance from a center point, making them radially symmetric.

Common types of radial basis functions include:

Gaussian: φ(r) = exp(- (εr)^2 )

Multiquadric: φ(r) = sqrt(1 + (εr)^2 )

Inverse Multiquadric: φ(r) = 1 / sqrt(1 + (εr)^2 )

Thin Plate Spline: φ(r) = r^2 * log(r)

where r is the Euclidean distance between points and ε is a shape parameter.

Implementing RBF Interpolation in MATLAB

Step 1: Prepare Your Data

First, you need a set of scattered data points. Let's assume you have data points (x_i, y_i, f_i) where x_i and y_i are the coordinates, and f_i are the function values at these points.

Step 2: Choose an RBF

Choose an appropriate radial basis function. For simplicity, let's use the Gaussian RBF.

Step 3: Construct the Interpolation Matrix

The interpolation matrix A is constructed using the chosen RBF evaluated at the distances between the points.

Step 4: Solve for Weights

Solve the linear system A * w = f to find the weights w.

Step 5: Interpolate at New Points

To interpolate at new points (x_new, y_new), compute the RBF values between these points and the original data points, and use the weights w to find the interpolated values.
