Thin Plate Spline Network with Radiohead Example

A thin plate spline radial basis function network may be used to interpolate non-uniformly spaced data. The surface (or line or hypersurface) is fit exactly to the given control points, with the surface in between acting similar to thin sheet of metal.
An example is given using a frame of data from the Radiohead "House of Cards" video dataset, if which the point cloud is interpolated onto a uniform grid for plotting with the surf function.
A simpler example is also included.
