Abstract:
The problem of function recovery is investigated, where instead of function values at certain points of the segment, integrally averaged values over intervals are known. Yu. N. Subbotin proposed to call such a problem as interpolation in the mean. Using the relationship between integro quadratic splines that solve the specified problem and interpolation cubic splines, the issue of choosing end conditions is considered in the case of the absence of additional information at the ends of the segment that could be used as end conditions. When constructing an interpolation in the mean spline through B-splines, formulas are proposed for explicitly specifying the expansion coefficients at the ends of the segment, which ensure the preservation of the highest third order of approximation.
Keywords:integro spline, interpolation in the mean, B-splines, end conditions, cubic splines.
