New contributions are offered to the theory and practice of the Discrete Empirical Interpolation Method (DEIM). These include a detailed characterization of the canonical structure; a substantial tightening of the error bound for the DEIM oblique projection, based on index selection via a strong rank revealing QR factorization; and an extension of the DEIM approximation to weighted inner products defined by a real symmetric positive-definite matrix $W$. The weighted DEIM ($W$-DEIM) can be deployed in the more general framework where the POD Galerkin projection is formulated in a discretization of a suitable energy inner product such that the Galerkin projection preserves important physical properties such as e.g. stability. Also, a special case of $W$-DEIM is introduced, which is DGEIM, a discrete version of the Generalized Empirical Interpolation Method that allows generalization of the interpolation via a dictionary of linear functionals. 查看全文>>
