Rbf(*args, **kwargs)

Attributes

N : int

The number of data points (as determined by the input arrays).

di : ndarray

The 1-D array of data values at each of the data coordinates :None:None:`xi`.

xi : ndarray

The 2-D array of data coordinates.

function : str or callable

The radial basis function. See description under Parameters.

epsilon : float

Parameter used by gaussian or multiquadrics functions. See Parameters.

smooth : float

Smoothing parameter. See description under Parameters.

norm : str or callable

The distance function. See description under Parameters.

mode : str

Mode of the interpolation. See description under Parameters.

nodes : ndarray

A 1-D array of node values for the interpolation.

A : internal property, do not use
note

:None:None:`Rbf` is legacy code, for new usage please use :None:None:`RBFInterpolator` instead.

Parameters

*args : arrays

x, y, z, ..., d, where x, y, z, ... are the coordinates of the nodes and d is the array of values at the nodes

function : str or callable, optional

The radial basis function, based on the radius, r, given by the norm (default is Euclidean distance); the default is 'multiquadric':

'multiquadric': sqrt((r/self.epsilon)**2 + 1)
'inverse': 1.0/sqrt((r/self.epsilon)**2 + 1)
'gaussian': exp(-(r/self.epsilon)**2)
'linear': r
'cubic': r**3
'quintic': r**5
'thin_plate': r**2 * log(r)

If callable, then it must take 2 arguments (self, r). The epsilon parameter will be available as self.epsilon. Other keyword arguments passed in will be available as well.

epsilon : float, optional

Adjustable constant for gaussian or multiquadrics functions - defaults to approximate average distance between nodes (which is a good start).

smooth : float, optional

Values greater than zero increase the smoothness of the approximation. 0 is for interpolation (default), the function will always go through the nodal points in this case.

norm : str, callable, optional

A function that returns the 'distance' between two points, with inputs as arrays of positions (x, y, z, ...), and an output as an array of distance. E.g., the default: 'euclidean', such that the result is a matrix of the distances from each point in x1 to each point in x2 . For more options, see documentation of :None:None:`scipy.spatial.distances.cdist`.

mode : str, optional

Mode of the interpolation, can be '1-D' (default) or 'N-D'. When it is '1-D' the data d will be considered as 1-D and flattened internally. When it is 'N-D' the data d is assumed to be an array of shape (n_samples, m), where m is the dimension of the target domain.

A class for radial basis function interpolation of functions from N-D scattered data to an M-D domain.

Examples

>>> from scipy.interpolate import Rbf
... rng = np.random.default_rng()
... x, y, z, d = rng.random((4, 50))
... rbfi = Rbf(x, y, z, d) # radial basis function interpolator instance
... xi = yi = zi = np.linspace(0, 1, 20)
... di = rbfi(xi, yi, zi) # interpolated values
... di.shape (20,)

Local connectivity graph

Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.

Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)

SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.

All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
