POLYNOMIALCURVECURVATURE Compute the local curvature of a polynomial curve.
KAPPA = polynomialCurveCurvature(T, XCOEF, YCOEF)
XCOEF and YCOEF are row vectors of coefficients, in the form:
[a0 a1 a2 ... an]
KAPPA is the local curvature of the polynomial curve, computed for
position T. If T is a vector, KAPPA has the same length as T.
KAPPA = polynomialCurveCurvature(T, COEFS)
COEFS is either a 2xN matrix (one row for the coefficients of each
coordinate), or a cell array.
