multislider to breakpoint function object
hello,
is there an object that can convert multislider data to breakpoint function
object data, preserving the multislider shape as much as possible with as
less points as possible?
below is something i've tried - it first samples every nth list value, and
transfers them to bpf. then, it searches for sudden changes of values in
list, and if change of successive values goes over given threshold, it
transfers value at that place to function too, adding some details...
but i can't get around this problem:
before reduction, in multislider, i have this:
......'''......
after reduction, in bpf it looks like this:
----^----
and i would like it to look like this:
___--___
but i've run out of ideas.
cheers,
nesa
Wouldn't it be better to search for maxima and minima instead of taking
a fixed number of steps? Afterwards you could eliminate those which have
a too little difference compared to direct connection of every second
point to get rid of points which would fit into a direct line...
In short words, instead of taking a too small amount and adding missing
points, take too many and eliminate those with little information...
Send in what you come up with, sounds interesting...
Stefan

ah, there it is, nasty message. I knew someone would reply, thanks Stefan.
Your suggestion sounds reasonable, I'll post something as soon as I find
time to get back to it.
