Minimal Sophus/Ceres autodiff vs numeric example

Using Ceres to minimize the cost function, it works fine using numeric derivatives but not automatic.

Cost function

A B-spline in SE3 defines a camera trajectory. Now we want to find the spline (its knots) such that

  1. The world point Xw = (5, 1, 3) has local spline/camera coordinate Xs = (0, 0, 1).
  2. The angular velocity is a constant rotation around the x-axis.

I.e. The cameras trajectory is circular with Xw as its center point.

The spline is implemented according to the description in

Building

Except for the usual things to build a Ceres project, you need the Sophus package for SE(3) representations. Specifically, the version by Steven Lovegrove
