What is bilinear interpolation method?
Bilinear Interpolation : is a resampling method that uses the distanceweighted average of the four nearest pixel values to estimate a new pixel value. The four cell centers from the input raster are closest to the cell center for the output processing cell will be weighted and based on distance and then averaged.
Which of the following interpolation methods performs bilinear interpolation?
Bilinear interpolation is performed using linear interpolation first in one direction, and then again in the other direction.
How many interpolations are needed to compute bilinear interpolation?
Figure 1: bilinear interpolation. We perform two linear interpolations first to compute a and b and then we interpolate a and b to find c. Bilinear interpolation is used when we need to know values at random positions on a regular 2D grid. Note that this grid can as well be an image or a texture map.
Why do we use bilinear interpolation?
It's recommended to use bilinear interpolation for continuous data sets without distinct boundaries. The surface must be continuous and the closest points must be related. When you run the process, it generates a smoother surface, but not as severe as cubic convolution which uses 16 neighboring cells.
