This class solves a least-squares problem using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.

This implementation should work even for over-determined systems (i.e. systems having more point than equations). Over-determined systems are solved by ignoring the point which have the smallest impact according to their jacobian column norm. Only the rank of the matrix and some loop bounds are changed to implement this.

The resolution engine is a simple translation of the MINPACK lmder routine with minor changes. The changes include the over-determined resolution, the use of inherited convergence checker and the Q.R. decomposition which has been rewritten following the algorithm described in the P. Lascaux and R. Theodor book Analyse numérique matricielle appliquée à l'art de l'ingénieur, Masson 1986.

    Decompose a matrix A as A.P = Q.R using Householder transforms.

    As suggested in the P. Lascaux and R. Theodor book Analyse numérique matricielle appliquée à l'art de l'ingénieur (Masson, 1986), instead of representing the Householder transforms with uk unit vectors such that:

    Hk = I - 2uk.ukt
    
    we use k non-unit vectors such that:
    Hk = I - betakvk.vkt
    
    where vk = ak - alphak ek. The betak coefficients are provided upon exit as recomputing them from the vk vectors would be costly.

    This decomposition handles rank deficient cases since the tranformations are performed in non-increasing columns norms order thanks to columns pivoting. The diagonal elements of the R matrix are therefore also in non-increasing absolute values order.

    Params:
    • jacobian – Weighted Jacobian matrix at the current point.
    • solvedCols – Number of solved point.
    Throws:
    Returns:data used in other methods of this class.
