> AbstractEstimator: getCovariances() and guessParametersErrors() crash when

>                 Key: MATH-200
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-200
>             Project: Commons Math
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.2

>            Assignee: Luc Maisonobe
>            Priority: Critical

> the two methods getCovariances() and guessParametersErrors() from 
> org.apache.commons.math.estimation.AbstractEstimator crash with 
> ArrayOutOfBounds exception when some of the parameters are bound. The reason 
> is that the Jacobian is calculated only for the unbound parameters. in the 
> code you loop through all parameters.
> line #166: final int cols = problem.*getAllParameters()*.length;
> should be replaced by:  final int cols = 
> problem.*getUnboundParameters()*.length;
> (similar changes could be done in guessParametersErrors())
> the dissadvantage of the above bug fix is that what is returned to the user 
> is an array with smaller size than the number of all parameters. 
> Alternatively, you can have some logic in the code which writes zeros for the 
> elements of the covariance matrix corresponding to the bound parameters
