_this page is work in progress_
h2. Rationale for Package Names
h3. Geometry
_Geometry is a branch of mathematics concerned with questions of shape, size, relative position of figures, and the properties of space._

h3. Kinematics
_Kinematics is the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of bodies (objects) and systems (groups of objects) without consideration of the forces that cause the motion._
h3. Dynamics
_In the field of physics, the study of the causes of motion and changes in motion is dynamics. In other words the study of forces and why objects are in motion. Dynamics includes the study of the effect of torques on motion._
h3. ImageProcessing
_In electrical engineering and computer science, image processing is any form of signal processing for which the input is an image_ ("source":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_processing)
h3. AudioProcessing
_Audio signal processing, sometimes referred to as audio processing, is the intentional alteration of auditory signals, or sound._ ("source":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_signal_processing)
h3. Stochastics
_The use of the term stochastic to mean based on the theory of probability_ ("source":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic)
