Abstract:
1. A method of forming a multidimensional upsampled table comprising a plurality of upsampled contents, a plurality of upsampled columns, and a plurality of upsampled rows, the method comprising: (A) reading a multidimensional unsampled table including a plurality of unsampled content values, the multidimensional unsampled table having a plurality of unsampled columns and a plurality of unsampled rows, the multidimensional unsampled table being monotonic in each of the plurality of unsampled columns and being monotonic in each of the plurality of unsampled rows; (B) performing an upsampling algorithm on the plurality of unsampled content values of the multidimensional unsampled table to create the multidimensional upsampled table, wherein: (a) the multidimensional unsampled table includes a plurality of nodes corresponding to the plurality of unsampled content values that correspond to the intersections of unsampled rows and unsampled columns of the multidimensional unsampled table and a plurality of unsampled boundary nodes corresponding to the plurality of unsampled content values at an end-point of each of at least one of the plurality of unsampled rows of the multidimensional unsampled table or at an end-point of each of the at least one of the plurality of unsampled columns of the multidimensional unsampled table; (b) the multidimensional unsampled table includes at least one of: (c) based on the properties of the upsampling algorithm, the multidimensional upsampled table has at least one of the following properties: (C) at least one of storing the multidimensional upsampled table, outputting the upsampled table and displaying the upsampled table; wherein
