Zuppa, Carlos Good quality point sets and error estimates for moving least square approximations. (English) Zbl 1040.65034 Appl. Numer. Math. 47, No. 3-4, 575-585 (2003). The author discusses the construction of moving least square approximations. Error estimates in Sobolev spaces are given. It is discussed that the condition number of the star of nodes could be used as a good measure for the quality of the distribution of the nodes and patches.
