Is there a name for this kind of interpolation so that I can search more about?
@EpsilonDeltaMain2 жыл бұрын
I wish a name was given for the process but I do not know. In practice, matching boundaries up to certain order of derivatives is used all the time in numerical analysis (e.g. Hermite Polynomials) which are practical, but to require infinite differentiability in a closed formula is something you may or may not see in a course in smooth manifolds/functional analysis which are graduate level subjects, and thats why I thought it was appropriate to cover it since it is not very accessible at an elementary level in context. But if I were to give the closest concept for this kind of "filling in the middle smoothly" process with a known name, I would say searching Smooth Urysohn's Lemma would get you most relevant results. My next video in the series is going to cover that topic

@@EpsilonDeltaMain I see! Thank you for your quick response. Another thing I would like to ask is: are there different solutions, that is, solutions other than taking e^(-1/x) ? If not, wouldn't it mean that the limit of Hermite polynomials when their degrees tend to infinity converges to the found solution? In the video, you said that using an infinite series would result in the Taylor series, but isn't this different from doing the previous limit? Because with limits you get what the polynomial approaches when it goes to infinity, not what it is at infinity.
@EpsilonDeltaMain2 жыл бұрын
@@pedrokrause7553 Very good questions. I like your questions and it adds so much value to some missing details in the video, so I pinned it if you don't mind 1. It doesn't have to be e^(-1/x). as long as the f in the f(-1/x) decays asymptotically a lot faster than -1/x shoots off to infinity as x -> 0+. For example f(x) = 5^(-x^2) will do it as well [*this is a gaussian], and if you are clever enough you can find an infinite family of these kinds of functions, including ones that does not directly use exponential function, such as erf(x) or 1/Γ(-x+2). But tail ends of functions like arctan(x) or 1/(x^10+1) will not decay fast enough to make derivatives of all order = 0 at x=0 for f(-1/x). Plus, we dont even have to use f(-1/x), and use something like f(-1/x^2) as this example shows: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_function 2. You are right, I assumed that if such Taylor series existed, it would fail to satisfy the left and the right simultaneously. e.g. if the left function was sin x, then taylor series uniquely defines the function extension to be the sin x. 3. But if we instead take a look at the limit of these hermite polynomials, the series wouldn't converge. Just take a look at first few hermite polynomials. for step interpolation. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoothstep The coefficients blow up to tens of thousands fairly quickly, and the function only is bounded since the terms are alternating and pluses and minuses cancel each other. The limit of the polynomial would not exist since it would be like ∞x-∞x^2+∞x^3-∞x^4... if you look at the closed formula of coefficients of the hermite polynomial for each order

Interestingly enough, it was teached to us in the university when we were introduced into Dirac delta function. This was a part of some 3rd year math for physics students. These c-infinite functions are required to properly define and prove theorems which involve the Dirac delta, and by an extension, Green's functions which are "supercharged deltas" and therefore QED propagators, which are essentially Green's functions. This is why this was important for physics students - we actually need this to learn QED (which we learned afterwards).

Good stuff. Kind of gives insight as to why finding an "analytic" continuation (but for this video not really as we are only dealing with reals, but more generally) can be difficult. Why "infinitely differentiable" is such a constraining condition. (Hopefully) Constructive criticism: I found myself losing track of which "Greek letter function" was modeling what parts of our goal. Like it would be helpful to have a line like "φ will be the continuous step function used to interpolate" or something when you defined the function. Same for the ψ function too. If you did already describe it, there was enough time between when you and when you stated it and performing the proofs and derivations (8:30 ish) that it deserved having a reminder at that point.

I'm not even 100% sure it's true and I wouldn't have a clue how to prove it, but if it is true, it's fascinating to me that each polynomial shape is completely unique. This kinda links in to how it would be difficult to get 2 different functions to 'agree' with one another via a smooth transition function, though I admit it's a bit of a stretch.

If you modify the beizer curve's interpolation function from stepped linear to this smoothstep, the acceleration will be continuous. You could use a gradient descent solver to minimize lateral G forces by manipulation of the curve control points!

this was a lot of work to just simply interpolate the extensions over the timeframe of that extension. Meaning you have an assigned missing part of the graph in which you extend both functions into, you then go from one function to the other, similar to how spline works. If you want true smoothness, then it requires either doubling the missing length or using actual splines but could create 3 answers of the function at some x values. So we have for the simpler approach: lerp(a, b, c) = (b-a)*c+a; line interpolation function given A as x coordinate for first function f(x) cut off and B as second g(x), we have: h(x) = lerp(f(x), g(x), (x-A)/(B-A)); for values between A and B no derivative or difficult nonsense needed
