Difference operators from interpolating moving least squares and their deviation from optimality
ESAIM: Modélisation mathématique et analyse numérique, Tome 39 (2005) no. 5, pp. 883-908.

We consider the classical Interpolating Moving Least Squares (IMLS) interpolant as defined by Lancaster and Šalkauskas [Math. Comp. 37 (1981) 141-158] and compute the first and second derivative of this interpolant at the nodes of a given grid with the help of a basic lemma on Shepard interpolants. We compare the difference formulae with those defining optimal finite difference methods and discuss their deviation from optimality.
