template class mrpt::poses::SO_average<2>

Overview

Computes weighted and un-weighted averages of SO(2) orientations.

Add values to average with append(), when done call get_average(). Use clear() to reset the accumulator and start a new average computation. Theoretical base: Average on SO(2) manifolds is computed by averaging the corresponding 2D points, then projecting the result back to the closest-point in the manifold. Shortly explained in these slides Class introduced in MRPT 1.3.1

Fields

bool enable_exception_on_undeterminate {false}

(Default=false) Set to true if you want to raise an exception on undetermined average values.

Construction

SO_average()

Constructor.

Methods

void clear()

Resets the accumulator.

void append(const double orientation_rad)

Adds a new orientation (radians) to the computation.

See also:

get_average

void append(const double orientation_rad, const double weight)

Adds a new orientation (radians) to the weighted-average computation.

See also:

get_average

double get_average() const

Returns the average orientation (radians).

Parameters:

std::logic_error

If no data point were inserted.

std::runtime_error

Upon undeterminate average value (ie the average lays exactly on the origin point) and enable_exception_on_undeterminate is set to true (otherwise, the 0 orientation would be returned)
