Description
minimaxApprox is an R package which implements the algorithm of Remez (1962) for polynomial minimax approximation and of Cody et al. (1968) doi:10.1007/BF02162506 for rational minimax approximation.
Citation
If you use the package, please cite it as per CITATION.
Acknowledgments
The author is grateful to Martin Maechler for suggestions which helped the author's introduction to minimax approximation.
Roadmap
Major
- Research barycentric representations to consider if possible to implement in R.
- Alternatively, research if possible to use Rmpfr package for increased precision.
Minor
- Write a vignette.
