class ExtraValues(unwhitened_residual)[source]

Bases: object

Parameters:

unwhitened_residual (Matrix11) –

unwhitened_residual

Error after applying the barrier function but before applying the cost scaling.

Type:

symforce.geo.matrix.Matrix11

unwhitened_residual: Matrix11
static residual_at_timestep(vector, params, epsilon, cost_scaling=1, power=1)[source]

Returns the residual block for the given timestep, where the residual is computed by applying a max barrier function to the norm of the given vector, and then optionally scaling the corresponding cost in the overall optimization problem by cost_scaling.

Parameters:
  • vector (Matrix) – Vector whose norm we wish to apply a barrier to.

  • params (Params) – Parameters defining the barrier function.

  • power (float) – Power of the barrier function. Defaults to 1, producing a linear barrier function in the residual, which corresponds to a quadratic cost in the overall optimization problem.

  • cost_scaling (float) – Optional scaling parameter. Corresponds to multiplying the cost in the overall optimization problem by a constant.

  • epsilon (float) –

Return type:

ResidualBlock
