In a series of articles [9, 10, 11] about the numerical computation of orthogonal polynomials on a subset of the real line, Gautschi shows that computing orthogonal polynomials starting from the moments μ k = ∫ x k dμ ( x ) of the measure is generally an ill‐conditioned problem. However, in [10] an alternative approach is presented, based on so‐called modified moments, which works better in certain situations. In this paper we generalize these results to the computation of orthogonal rational functions and provide a new modified moment algorithm, based on the connection between modified moments and interpolatory quadrature.
