Numerical Algorithms: Methods for Computer Vision, Machine Learning, and Graphics presents a new approach to numerical analysis for modern computer scientists. Using examples from a broad base of computational tasks, including data processing, computational photography, and animation, the textbook introduces numerical modeling and algorithmic design from a practical standpoint and provides insight into the theoretical tools needed to support these skills.

Alternatively, we can think of f(x1, x2) as the brightness at (x1, x2) (dark indicates a low value of f), in which case ▿f points perpendicular to level sets in the direction where f is increasing and the image gets lighter.

Figure 4.2 Drawbacks of fitting function values exactly: (a) noisy data might be better represented by a simple function rather than a complex curve that touches every data point and (b) the basis functions might not be tuned to the function being sampled. In (b), we fit a polynomial of degree eight to nine samples from f(x) = |x| but would have been more successful using a basis of line segments.
