I'm computing the potentials in a volume conductor. I can get the potentials at any arbitrary location using the File->Export->Post Processing Data. Anybody know what method (and its order) COMSOL uses to interpolate the potentials at the arbitrary locations?

Let's suppose I have a speech signal with frequency content >300 Hz. I then add noise to this signal, that happens to be somewhere below 300 Hz. I then high-pass filter the signal (300+ Hz) and I have increased the mutual information and seemingly violated the data processing inequality. Can...
