Trigonometric interpolationIn mathematics, trigonometric interpolation is interpolation with trigonometric polynomials. Interpolation is the process of finding a function which goes through some given data points. For trigonometric interpolation, this function has to be a trigonometric polynomial, that is, a sum of sines and cosines of given periods. This form is especially suited for interpolation of periodic functions. An important special case is when the given data points are equally spaced, in which case the solution is given by the discrete Fourier transform.
Survey samplingIn statistics, survey sampling describes the process of selecting a sample of elements from a target population to conduct a survey. The term "survey" may refer to many different types or techniques of observation. In survey sampling it most often involves a questionnaire used to measure the characteristics and/or attitudes of people. Different ways of contacting members of a sample once they have been selected is the subject of survey data collection.
GraphicsGraphics () are visual s or designs on some surface, such as a wall, canvas, screen, paper, or stone, to inform, illustrate, or entertain. In contemporary usage, it includes a pictorial representation of data, as in design and manufacture, in typesetting and the graphic arts, and in educational and recreational software. Images that are generated by a computer are called computer graphics. Examples are photographs, drawings, line art, mathematical graphs, line graphs, charts, diagrams, typography, numbers, symbols, geometric designs, maps, engineering drawings, or other s.
Alpha blendingEn infographie, la simulation de transparence ou alpha blending est une technique graphique consistant à ajouter de la transparence à des images en deux dimensions ou à des objets tridimensionnels. Les deux cas sont semblables étant donné qu'un objet 3D donné est souvent modélisé par des surfaces avec une image servant de texture. La technique de simulation de transparence consiste à ajouter à chaque pixel une valeur, par exemple un octet (nombre de 0 à 255), définissant le caractère translucide de la surface et appelée canal alpha.
Logiciel graphiquevignette|Capture d'écran de l'éditeur graphiques vectoriel open source Xfig. Dans le domaine de l'infographie, un logiciel graphique (ou logiciels d'édition d'image, logiciel de graphisme ou logiciel de retouche d'image) est un programme informatique ou une collection de programmes permettant de manipuler et de traiter des formes, dessins, vecteurs ou s sur un ordinateur, éventuellement via une tablette graphique mais aussi un écran tactile comme le logiciel ardoise.
