  Deprecated.
  As of 3.1 (to be removed in 4.0).

      @Deprecated
      public class GaussNewtonOptimizer
      extends AbstractLeastSquaresOptimizer

  Gauss-Newton least-squares solver.

  This class solve a least-square problem by solving the normal equations of the linearized problem at each iteration. Either LU decomposition or QR decomposition can be used to solve the normal equations. LU decomposition is faster but QR decomposition is more robust for difficult problems.
