3. Displacement Interpolation Using Lagrandian Mass Transport Abstract  Linear Interpolation: can ’ t capture transitional motion  Displacement Interpolation: works based on advection  Distributions or functions are decomposed into sum of radial basis functions (RBFs).  Algorithm finds pair of RBFs and compute their mass transport to obtain the interpolated function. 1

4. 1. Displacement Interpolation Using Lagrandian Mass Transport Displacement Interpolation If we know the distribution function, displacement interpolation is easy to be calculated. But how we could interpolate distributions whose parameterized formula is unknown?
