An extension of Lagrange interpolation to approximate derivative, integral and bivariate function
Lagrange interpolation is the effective method to approximate an arbitrary function by a polynomial. But there is a need to estimate derivative and integral given a set of points. Although it is possible to make Lagrange interpolation first, which produces Lagrange polynomial; after that we take derivative or integral on such polynomial. However this approach does not result out the best estimation of derivative and integral. This research proposes a different approach that makes approximation of derivative and integral based on point data first, which in turn applies Lagrange interpolation into the approximation. Moreover, the research also proposes an extension of Lagrange interpolation to bivariate function, in which interpolation polynomial is converted as two-variable polynomial.
