Workshop Description

Computational methods based on Radial Basis Functions are a hot topic in engineering problems solution, generally in not only in computational sciences and numerical mathematics.

Standard computational methods used across many application fields require tessellation in 2D or 3D using triangular or tetrahedral meshes. Tessellation itself is computationally expensive especially in higher dimensions and the result of that computation is again discrete, and physical phenomena are not smoothly interpolated. Methods based on Radial Basis Functions (RBFs) are especially convenient for scattered data processing as they do not require a tessellation. They are used not only for interpolation and approximation, but also for solution of partial and ordinary differential equations, etc.
RBF methods are scalable to higher dimensions and offer smooth final representation and they lead to a solution of a system of linear equations, in general.

This RBF2020 workshop at the ICCSA 2020 conference is intended to explore broad computational applicability of the  Radial Basis Functions across all computational fields.
The aim is also to connect computational applications with the latest theoretical research results, i.e. put together related advanced applications in computational sciences and latest related theory.

The accepted and presented papers are expected to be published in the ICCSA 2020 conference proceedings.

Main topics (but not limited to):
(please, use this numbers as a sub-sessions identification  as XX as mentioned above)

1. RBF methods in engineering problems
2. RBF methods and differential equations
3. RBF methods and GIS, CAD/CAM systems
4. RBF methods in theory and practice
5. RBF methods and computational and numerical issues
6. RBF interpolation and approximation methods for large scalar and vector data sets
7. RBF methods for scattered spatio-temporal data, t-varying systems etc.
8. Radial Basis Functions (RBF) in computer graphics, visualization etc.
9. RBF methods in image processing and computer vision
10. RBF methods and projective space representation
11. Comparison of RBF and mesh based computational methods
12. Scattered data interpolation and approximation methods
13. RBF for a mesh morphing and data mapping
14. RBF methods for corrupted image reconstruction and inpainting removal
15. RBF methods applications in general
