Hello everybody, I have developed a module that computes the best rotation that maps a set of vectors onto another set of vectors. "Best rotation" means here that it minimizes the sum of the squared distances between each two corresponding vectors.
The working title of the module is Math::BestRotation. The name is not entirely accurate, because the module can also (if the user chooses so) find the best orthogonal map (including rotations combined with a reflection). So Math::BestOrthogonal or Math::BestOrthogonalMap would be alternative names. However, I think for people trying to find my module, the keyword rotation is most helpful. I'm not really looking for a new name, personally I am happy with Math::BestRotation. This is rather a "request for comments" so to speak. So if you have any comments, please let me know. Thanks and best wishes Lutz
