@ -6,39 +6,39 @@ What is GTSAM ?
GTSAM is a library of C++ classes that implement smoothing and
mapping (SAM) in robotics and vision, using factor graphs and Bayes
networks as the underlying computing paradigm rather than sparse
matrices. A set of MATLAB mex wrappers is included.
matrices. A set of MATLAB mex wrappers is also included.
GTSAM is not (yet) open source: See COPYING & LICENSE
Please see USAGE for an example on how to use GTSAM.
The code is organized according to the following directory structure:
base provides some base Math and data structures, as well as test-related utilities
geometry points, poses, tensors, etc
inference core graphical model inference such as factor graphs, junction trees, Bayes nets, Bayes trees
linear inference specialized to Gaussian linear case, GaussianFactorGraph etc...
nonlinear non-linear factor graphs and non-linear optimization
slam SLAM and visual SLAM application code

All of the above contain code and tests, and build local shared libraries that are then
bundled in a top-level shared library libgtsam.la. After this is built, you can also run
the more involved tests that test the entire library:

Furthermore the MATLAB wrapper generator code is run as well

Finally, there are some local libraries built needed in the rest of the code:
colamd COLAMD and CCOLAMD by Tim Davis needed for re-ordering
CppUnitLite unit test library

m4 local M4 macros
