Hi.
In interface "LeastSquaresProblem.Evaluation" (in package
"o.a.c.m.fitting.leastsquares"),
the argument to method "getCovariances(double)" defines the condition
for an exception to
be thrown when the product of the Jacobian matrix with its transpose is
deemed singular.
The Javadoc does not specify the meaning of the singularity
"threshold".
If I'm not mistaken, the value for the threshold should be different
whether we consider
the product above, or the Jacobian matrix itself. Also, the meaning of
the threshold seems
tied to the QR decomposition.
I wonder whether we should not select a "more objective" criterion to
determine when
the Jacobian should be considered singular.
Is it possible to assert that below a certain threshold, the inversion
is bound to
produce garbage and thus set a hard-coded default?
Best regards,
Gilles
