031     * This class solves a least squares problem using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.
032     *
033     * <p>This implementation <em>should</em> work even for over-determined systems
034     * (i.e. systems having more point than equations). Over-determined systems
035     * are solved by ignoring the point which have the smallest impact according
036     * to their jacobian column norm. Only the rank of the matrix and some loop bounds
037     * are changed to implement this.</p>
038     *
039     * <p>The resolution engine is a simple translation of the MINPACK <a
040     * href="http://www.netlib.org/minpack/lmder.f">lmder</a> routine with minor
041     * changes. The changes include the over-determined resolution, the use of
042     * inherited convergence checker and the Q.R. decomposition which has been
043     * rewritten following the algorithm described in the
044     * P. Lascaux and R. Theodor book <i>Analyse num&eacute;rique matricielle
045     * appliqu&eacute;e &agrave; l'art de l'ing&eacute;nieur</i>, Masson 1986.</p>
