Contraction Estimator: a Global Optimal Solution for Robotics Optimization Problems

Published in Benelux Meeting on Systems and Control, 2026

In this work, we propose a global optimimal framework for optimization problems (convex, non-convex, non-differentiable and discrete) on complete Banach spaces.
