+====== Interpolate ======
+If there are unreliable data points (residuals < 0) in any signal it is possible to interpolate these gaps in the data using a spline interpolation.
+==== Visual3D Version 4 ====
+The interpolation procedure performs a least-squares fit of an nth order polynomial to k data points.
+|(x1,t1),...,(xk,tk)|k >= polynomial order + 1||

+=== Using an expression in Version 4 ===
+This is considerable more klunky because it requires 3 commands instead of 1:
+**Evaluate_Expression**
+/EXPRESSION=0.1*PARAMETERS::POINT::RATE
+/RESULT_NAME=RATE
+/RESULT_TYPE=METRIC
+/RESULT_FOLDER=TEMP
+**;**
+**Set_Pipeline_Parameter_To_Data_Value**
+/PARAMETER_NAME=GAP
+/SIGNAL_TYPES=METRIC
+/SIGNAL_NAMES=RATE
+/SIGNAL_FOLDER=TEMP
+! /SIGNAL_COMPONENTS=ALL_COMPONENTS
+**;**
+**Interpolate**
+/SIGNAL_TYPES=TARGET
+! /SIGNAL_NAMES=
+! /SIGNAL_FOLDER=ORIGINAL
+! /RESULT_SUFFIX=
+! /RESULT_FOLDER=PROCESSED
+/MAXIMUM_GAP=::GAP
+! /NUM_FIT=3
+! /POLYNOMIAL_ORDER=3
+**;**
+==== Visual3D Version 5 ====
+In version 5 we permit the three numerical parameters to have expressions.
+**Interpolate**
+/SIGNAL_TYPES=TARGET
+! /SIGNAL_NAMES=
+! /SIGNAL_FOLDER=ORIGINAL
+! /RESULT_SUFFIX=
+! /RESULT_FOLDER=PROCESSED
