Detailed Description

template<typename _Scalar, int _AmbientDim, int _Options>
class Eigen::Hyperplane< _Scalar, _AmbientDim, _Options >

A hyperplane

A hyperplane is an affine subspace of dimension n-1 in a space of dimension n. For example, a hyperplane in a plane is a line; a hyperplane in 3-space is a plane.

Parameters:
_Scalarthe scalar type, i.e., the type of the coefficients
_AmbientDimthe dimension of the ambient space, can be a compile time value or Dynamic. Notice that the dimension of the hyperplane is _AmbientDim-1.

This class represents an hyperplane as the zero set of the implicit equation $ n \cdot x + d = 0 $ where $ n $ is a unit normal vector of the plane (linear part) and $ d $ is the distance (offset) to the origin.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Hyperplane (  )

Default constructor without initialization.

Definition at line 53 of file Hyperplane.h.

Hyperplane ( Index  _dim ) [explicit]

Constructs a dynamic-size hyperplane with _dim the dimension of the ambient space.

Definition at line 62 of file Hyperplane.h.

Hyperplane ( const VectorType n,
const VectorType e 
)

Construct a plane from its normal n and a point e onto the plane.

Warning:
the vector normal is assumed to be normalized.

Definition at line 67 of file Hyperplane.h.

Hyperplane ( const VectorType n,
const Scalar &  d 
)

Constructs a plane from its normal n and distance to the origin d such that the algebraic equation of the plane is $ n \cdot x + d = 0 $.

Warning:
the vector normal is assumed to be normalized.

Definition at line 78 of file Hyperplane.h.

Hyperplane ( const ParametrizedLine< Scalar, AmbientDimAtCompileTime > &  parametrized ) [explicit]

Constructs a hyperplane passing through the parametrized line parametrized.

If the dimension of the ambient space is greater than 2, then there isn't uniqueness, so an arbitrary choice is made.

Definition at line 123 of file Hyperplane.h.

Hyperplane ( const Hyperplane< OtherScalarType, AmbientDimAtCompileTime, OtherOptions > &  other ) [explicit]

Copy constructor with scalar type conversion.

Definition at line 262 of file Hyperplane.h.


Member Function Documentation

Scalar absDistance ( const VectorType p ) const
Returns:
the absolute distance between the plane *this and a point p.
See also:
signedDistance()

Definition at line 148 of file Hyperplane.h.

internal::cast_return_type<Hyperplane, Hyperplane<NewScalarType,AmbientDimAtCompileTime,Options> >::type cast (  ) const
Returns:
*this with scalar type casted to NewScalarType

Note that if NewScalarType is equal to the current scalar type of *this then this function smartly returns a const reference to *this.

Definition at line 254 of file Hyperplane.h.

const Coefficients& coeffs (  ) const
Returns:
a constant reference to the coefficients c_i of the plane equation: $ c_0*x_0 + ... + c_{d-1}*x_{d-1} + c_d = 0 $

Definition at line 176 of file Hyperplane.h.

Coefficients& coeffs (  )
Returns:
a non-constant reference to the coefficients c_i of the plane equation: $ c_0*x_0 + ... + c_{d-1}*x_{d-1} + c_d = 0 $

Definition at line 181 of file Hyperplane.h.

Index dim (  ) const
Returns:
the dimension in which the plane holds

Definition at line 132 of file Hyperplane.h.

VectorType intersection ( const Hyperplane< _Scalar, _AmbientDim, _Options > &  other ) const
Returns:
the intersection of *this with other.
Warning:
The ambient space must be a plane, i.e. have dimension 2, so that *this and other are lines.
Note:
If other is approximately parallel to *this, this method will return any point on *this.

Definition at line 189 of file Hyperplane.h.

bool isApprox ( const Hyperplane< Scalar, AmbientDimAtCompileTime, OtherOptions > &  other,
const typename NumTraits< Scalar >::Real &  prec = NumTraits<Scalar>::dummy_precision() 
) const
Returns:
true if *this is approximately equal to other, within the precision determined by prec.
See also:
MatrixBase::isApprox()

Definition at line 270 of file Hyperplane.h.

ConstNormalReturnType normal (  ) const
Returns:
a constant reference to the unit normal vector of the plane, which corresponds to the linear part of the implicit equation.

Definition at line 157 of file Hyperplane.h.

NormalReturnType normal (  )
Returns:
a non-constant reference to the unit normal vector of the plane, which corresponds to the linear part of the implicit equation.

the distance to the origin, which is also the "constant term" of the implicit equation
Warning:
the vector normal is assumed to be normalized.

Definition at line 167 of file Hyperplane.h.

the projection of a point p onto the plane *this.

static Hyperplane Through ( const VectorType p0,
const VectorType p1 
) [static]

Constructs a hyperplane passing through the two points.

If the dimension of the ambient space is greater than 2, then there isn't uniqueness, so an arbitrary choice is made.

Hyperplane& transform ( const Transform< Scalar, AmbientDimAtCompileTime, Affine, TrOptions > &  t,
TransformTraits  traits = Affine

Applies the transformation t to *this and returns a reference to *this.
