OPTIMAL ALTERNATIVE TO THE AKIMA'S METHOD OF SMOOTH INTERPOLATION APPLIED IN DIABETOLOGY

Alexandru Mihai Bica, Marian Degeratu, Luiza Demian and Emanuel Paul

Abstract. It is presented a new method of cubic piecewise smooth interpolation applied to experimental data obtained by glycemic profile for diabetics. This method is applied to create a soft useful in clinical diabetology. The method give an alternative to the Akima's procedure of the derivatives computation on the knots from [1] and have an optimal property.
