mrpt::utils::CProbabilityDensityFunction< TDATA, STATE_LEN > Class Template Referenceabstract

Detailed Description

template<class TDATA, size_t STATE_LEN>
class mrpt::utils::CProbabilityDensityFunction< TDATA, STATE_LEN >

A generic template for probability density distributions (PDFs).

This template is used as base for many classes in mrpt::poses Any derived class must implement getMean() and a getCovarianceAndMean(). Other methods such as getMean() or getCovariance() are implemented here for convenience.
