Construction of recurrent bivariate fractal interpolation surfaces and computation of their box-counting dimension (Q2502870)

The object of the paper is to introduce a class of fractal interpolation surfaces (FISs) suitable to approximate any natural surface. More exactly, the authors introduce a class of recurrent bivariate fractal interpolation surfaces (BFISs) in order to gain more flexibility in natural-shape generation or in image compression. The advantage of this class of FISs is that they offer more flexibility to the fractal modelling compared to previous fractal techniques (based on affine transformations).
