Interface Embedding<S extends Space,T extends Space>

Type Parameters:

S - Type of the embedding space.

T - Type of the embedded sub-space.

All Known Implementing Classes:

Line, Line, Plane

public interface Embedding<S extends Space,T extends Space>

This interface defines mappers between a space and one of its sub-spaces.

Sub-spaces are the lower dimensions subsets of a n-dimensions space. The (n-1)-dimension sub-spaces are specific sub-spaces known as hyperplanes. This interface can be used regardless of the dimensions differences. As an example, Line in 3D implements Embedding<Vector3D, {link fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.math.geometry.euclidean.oned.Vector1D Vector1D>, i.e. it maps directly dimensions 3 and 1.

In the 3D euclidean space, hyperplanes are 2D planes, and the 1D sub-spaces are lines.
