Geometric and Numerical Foundations of Movements

Know about the book -

Geometric and Numerical Foundations of Movements is written by Jean-Paul Laumond and published by Springer. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3319515470 (ISBN 10) and 9783319515472 (ISBN 13).

This book aims at gathering roboticists, control theorists, neuroscientists, and mathematicians, in order to promote a multidisciplinary research on movement analysis. It follows the workshop “ Geometric and Numerical Foundations of Movements ” held at LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse in November 2015[1]. Its objective is to lay the foundations for a mutual understanding that is essential for synergetic development in motion research. In particular, the book promotes applications to robotics --and control in general-- of new optimization techniques based on recent results from real algebraic geometry.
