Multivariate Data-dependent Partition of Unity based on Moving Least Squares method

Data approximation is essential in fields such as geometric design, numerical PDEs, and curve modeling. Moving Least Squares (MLS) is a widely used method for data fitting; however, its accuracy degrades in the presence of discontinuities, often resulting in spurious oscillations similar to those associated with the Gibbs phenomenon. This work extends the integration of MLS with the Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) method and with an innovative partition of unity approach to higher dimensions. We propose a data-dependent operator using the novel Non-Linear Partition of Unity based on Moving Least Squares method in $\mathbb{R}^n$, which improves accuracy near discontinuities and maintains high-order accuracy in smooth regions. We demonstrate some theoretical properties of the method and perform numerical experiments to validate its effectiveness.

A Cell-Average Non-Separable Progressive Multivariate WENO Method for Image Processing Applications

Accurate and efficient reconstruction techniques are essential in multiresolution analysis and image compression, particularly when the data are represented as cell averages. In this work, we present a non-separable progressive multivariate Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) scheme specifically designed for cell-average data, with applications to digital image processing. The proposed method extends Harten's multiresolution framework through a non-linear WENO reconstruction adapted to the cell-average context, achieving high-order accuracy in smooth regions and stable, non-oscillatory behavior near discontinuities. We also establish theoretical results regarding the consistency and approximation properties of the method. Finally, several numerical experiments on piecewise smooth functions and digital images are presented to demonstrate its performance and validate its effectiveness against the linear Lagrange reconstruction of the same order of accuracy.

Integrating Moving Least Squares with non-linear WENO method: A novel Partition of Unity approach in 1D

The approximation of data is a fundamental challenge encountered in various fields, including computer-aided geometric design, the numerical solution of partial differential equations, or the design of curves and surfaces. Numerous methods have been developed to address this issue, providing good results when the data is continuous. Among these, the Moving Least Squares (MLS) method has proven to be an effective strategy for fitting data, finding applications in both statistics and applied mathematics. However, the presence of isolated discontinuities in the data can lead to undesirable artifacts, such as the Gibbs phenomenon, which adversely affects the quality of the approximation. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that integrates the Moving Least Squares method with the well-established non-linear Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) method. This combination aims to construct a non-linear operator that enhances the accuracy of approximations near discontinuities while maintaining the order of accuracy in smooth regions. We investigate the properties of this operator in one dimension, demonstrating its effectiveness through a series of numerical experiments that validate our theoretical findings.
