Hausdorff distance is a measure of how far apart two subsets of a metric space are from each other. It provides a way to quantify the distance between two sets by determining the greatest distance from a point in one set to the nearest point in the other set, and vice versa. This concept is particularly useful in variational analysis for establishing the convergence of sequences and the stability of solutions in optimization problems.
congrats on reading the definition of Hausdorff Distance. now let's actually learn it.
