Problem: A set of points in the X,Y plane. Each point has a weight. I would like to assign weights to all points on the plane by extrapolating and combining the weights of the given set. Simple Example: I have a set of 2 points A, B with weights wA, and wB (wB > wA). The distance between A and B is 5. The five points are given weights: wA + ((wB - wA)*1/5), wA +((wB - wA)*2/5), etc. In other words it is an even ramp of weights from A to B. The above example is not too difficult to program since I am limiting the area of the X, Y plane I will use. Also, whereas a very fine ramp was used above, I will probably use a ramp 10 to 20 times coarser. (?) This routine will actually be assigning weights to pixels, so all calculation (distances etc.) will eventually have to be rounded to integral values. Does anyone know of a source of information for an algorithm to deal with this, or some related problem? E-Mail to address below, or post if there's interest. Thankyou, Jennifer S.
