WeightedApproximation_3 Concept Reference

Definition

A concept for computing an approximation of a weighted point set.

This approximation can be used to fit other points to the point set.

Has Models:
CGAL::Weighted_PCA_approximation_3

Types

typedef unspecified_type FT
 defines the field number type.
 
typedef unspecified_type Point

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

WeightedApproximation_3::WeightedApproximation_3 ( unsigned int  size)

constructs an approximation of a undefined point set.

The point set holds a fixed number of points with undefined coordinates.

Parameters
sizeis the size of the points set.
Note
this does not compute the approximation.

Member Function Documentation

bool WeightedApproximation_3::compute ( )

computes the approximation.

Returns
whether the approximation converges. If the approximation does not converge this may indicate that the point set is too small, or the affine hull of the points cannot contain the approximation.
Point WeightedApproximation_3::fit ( const Point &  p)

fits a point to the approximation.

Parameters
pis the point to fit.
Returns
the point on the approximation closest to p.
Precondition
The approximation must have been computed.
void WeightedApproximation_3::set_point ( unsigned int  i,
const Point &  p,
const FT &  w 
)

changes a weighted point in the set.

This invalidates the approximation. compute() should be called after all points have been set.

Precondition
i must be smaller than the total size of the point set.
