Hi Craig and others,

"in_vec" is a vector of length "ydim" taken from a column of an image.
the content of this vector should be shifted "shift" and scaled "mag"
(squeezed or magnified) and resampled on a regular grid ("new_vec").
The first and last few elements of "in_vec" are usually mere noise.
Problems occur at the edges of the array when warp_x(0) > 0 or
warp_x(ydim-1) < ydim-1, ie. some elements have some unreasonable high
values. I would understand if this problem arises in the "extrapolation
zone" but these distortions extent into the area where gridpoints are
available (from in_vec and warp_y); and the slightly (a few %) elevated
signal intensity compared to the input is still an enigma.
Any guesses? It occurs for all interpolation schemes (/SPLINE, ...)
Mirroring the data around warp_x(0) and warp_x(ydim-1) helps but the
intensity shift is still there...

Roland.
