Abstract

A method for interpolating values of an attribute for an image grid may include determining a root value of the attribute for a root node located centrally in the image grid, pre-calculating metadata for multiple child nodes in one or more hierarchical levels based on one or more gradients of the attribute, and deriving values of the attribute for each of the child nodes at each of the hierarchical levels based on the corresponding root value and metadata for the hierarchical level of each child node, wherein each child node may be used as a root node in the next hierarchical level. The image grid may have multiple outer cells arranged radially around a central cell, and the root node may be located in the central cell.
