Maple concavification function

I would like to know if there exists a maple function which assigns to a function $u:[0,1]to[0,1]$ its concavification $text{cav }u:[0,1]to[0,1]$ which is the least concave function above $u$.



For example $u$ is represented by the dotted line and $text{cav }u$ by the bold line.
Concavification



I have looked on the internet but have not found what I am looking for. Could anyone walk me through writting such a function?

  • No, I don't think there is such a function.
