Newton Algorithms for Riemannian Distance Related Problems on Connected Locally Symmetric Manifolds
The squared distance function is one of the standard functions on which an optimization algorithm is commonly run, whether it is used directly or chained with other functions. Illustrative examples include center of mass computation, implementation of k-means algorithm and robot positioning. This function can have a simple expression (as …
