Coarse Space Correction for Graphic Analysis
In this paper we present an effective coarse space correction addressed to accelerate the solution of an algebraic linear system. The system arises from the formulation of the problem of interpolating scattered data by means of Radial Basis Functions. Radial Basis Functions are commonly used for interpolating scattered data during the image reconstruction process in graphic analysis. This requires to solve a linear system of equations for each color component and this process represents the most time-consuming operation. Several basis functions like trigonometric, exponential, Gaussian, polynomial are here investigated to construct a suitable coarse space correction to speed-up the solution of the linear system. Numerical experiments outline the superiority of some functions for the fast iterative solution of the image reconstruction problem.
