gtsam::NoiseModelFactor Class Referenceabstract

Detailed Description

A nonlinear sum-of-squares factor with a zero-mean noise model implementing the density \( P(z|x) \propto exp -0.5*|z-h(x)|^2_C \) Templated on the parameter type X and the values structure Values There is no return type specified for h(x).

Instead, we require the derived class implements \( \mathtt{error\_vector}(x) = h(x)-z \approx A \delta x - b \) This allows a graph to have factors with measurements of mixed type.

The noise model is typically Gaussian, but robust and constrained error models are also supported.

◆ error()

double gtsam::NoiseModelFactor::error ( const Values c) const
overridevirtual

Calculate the error of the factor.

This is the log-likelihood, e.g. \( 0.5(h(x)-z)^2/\sigma^2 \) in case of Gaussian. In this class, we take the raw prediction error \( h(x)-z \), ask the noise model to transform it to \( (h(x)-z)^2/\sigma^2 \), and then multiply by 0.5.

Implements gtsam::NonlinearFactor.
