Error in Euler angles and quaternions

jonagad · Aug 3, 2023

Hi, I got a set of Euler angles and a set of quaternions, and I wanted to compare each set against its corresponding set obtained from STK, and I was wondering what would be a good indicator to measure the error between the Euler angles I got and those from stk , and the same for quaternions, are efficient indicators like the RMSE or the MAD?

TL;DR Summary: Comparing Euler angles and quaternions from my data to STK's. Are RMSE or MAD suitable metrics for measuring discrepancies?

For those of us less acronym-savvy, can you please define STK, RMSE and MAD?
