Integrals

Integrals of the interpolated curves can also be computed easily.

Note

Integrals for LagrangeInterpolation, BSplineInterpolation, BSplineApprox, Curvefit will error as there are no simple analytical solutions available. Please use numerical methods instead, such as Integrals.jl.

To compute the integrals from the start of time points provided during interpolation to any point, we can do:

# integral(A, t)
 DataInterpolations.integral(A1, 5.0)
129.64386171415265

If we want to compute integrals between two points, we can do:

# integral(A, t1, t2)
 DataInterpolations.integral(A1, 1.0, 5.0)
114.9694509973317

Again, if the interpolation is defined with extrapolate=true, the integral can be computed beyond the range of the timepoints.

# integral(A, t1, t2)
-DataInterpolations.integral(A2, 200.0, 300.0)
1065.2015077631368
Note

If the times provided in the integral go beyond the range of the time points provided during interpolation, it uses extrapolation methods to compute the values, and hence the integral can be misrepsentative and might not reflect the true nature of the data.

Quadratic Interpolation

This function fits a parabola passing through the two nearest points from the input data point as well as the next-closest point on the right or left, depending on whether the forward- or backward-looking mode is selected (default mode is forward-looking).

B-Splines

This is an interpolating B-spline. B-splines are a global method, meaning that every data point is taken into account for each point of the curve. The interpolating B-spline is the version which hits each of the points. This method is described in more detail here. Let's plot a cubic B-spline (3rd order). Since the data points are not close to uniformly spaced, we will use the :ArcLen and :Average choices:

The approximating B-spline is a smoothed version of the B-spline. It again is a global method. In this case, we need to give a number of control points length(t)>h and this method fits a B-spline through the control points which is a least square approximation. This has a natural effect of smoothing the data. For example, if we use 4 control points, we get the result:

Regularization Smoothing

Smoothing by regularization (a.k.a. ridge regression) finds a function $\hat{u}$ that minimizes the objective function:

$Q(\hat{u}) = \int_{t_1}^{t_N} |\hat{u}(t) - u(t)|^2 \mathrm{d}t + \lambda \int_{\hat{t}_1}^{\hat{t}_N} |\hat{u}^{(d)}(\hat{t})|^2 \mathrm{d} \hat{t}$

where $(d)$ denotes derivative order and $\lambda$ is the regularization (smoothing) parameter. The integrals are evaluated numerically at the set of $t$ values for the first term and $\hat{t}$ values for the second term (equal to $t$ if not provided). Regularization smoothing is a global method that creates a smooth curve directly. See Stickel (2010) Comput. Chem. Eng. 34:467 for details. The implementation in this package uses cubic splines to interpolate between the smoothed points after they are determined.

$Q(\hat{u}) = \int_{t_1}^{t_N} |\hat{u}(t) - u(t)|^2 \mathrm{d}t + \lambda \int_{\hat{t}_1}^{\hat{t}_N} |\hat{u}^{(d)}(\hat{t})|^2 \mathrm{d} \hat{t}$

where $(d)$ denotes derivative order and $\lambda$ is the regularization (smoothing) parameter. The integrals are evaluated numerically at the set of $t$ values for the first term and $\hat{t}$ values for the second term (equal to $t$ if not provided). Regularization smoothing is a global method that creates a smooth curve directly. See Stickel (2010) Comput. Chem. Eng. 34:467 for details. The implementation in this package uses cubic splines to interpolate between the smoothed points after they are determined.

Curve Fits

A curve fit works with both dense and sparse data. We will demonstrate the curve fit on the dense data since we generated it based on sin(t), so this is the curve we want to fit through it. To do so, let's define a similar function with parameters. Let's choose the form:

m(t, p) = @. p[1] * sin(p[2] * t) + p[3] * cos(p[4] * t)
m (generic function with 1 method)

Notice that this is a function on the whole array of t and expects an array for the predicted u out. This choice of m is based on the assumption that our function is of the form p1*sin(p2*t)+p3*cos(p4*t). We want to find the p to match our data. Let's start with the guess of every p being zero, that is p=ones(4). Then we would fit this curve using:

Notice that it essentially made p3=0 with p1=p2=1, meaning it approximately found sin(t)! But note that the ability to fit is dependent on the initial parameters. For example, with p=zeros(4) as the initial parameters, the fit is not good:

A = Curvefit(u, t, m, zeros(4), LBFGS())
 scatter(t, u, label = "points", legend = :bottomright)
