Gilles updated MATH-177:
------------------------

    Attachment: UnivariateRealSolverImpl.java
                UnivariateRealSolver.java
                BrentMinimizer.java

Here are the files discussed on the ML under subject: "[math] Brent 
Minimization".
[Although Luc said I should attach them to this issue, they are probably meant 
to be included in (or below) the "analysis" package.]


> Provide a general minimizing package with a classical Gauss-Newton algorithm

> Currently the math API provides least squares only method for minimizing 
> (solving). The limitation to least-squares problems comes from the 
> Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. A more general minimizer (not for quadratic 
> forms) could be implemented by refactoring this with a classical GN, steepest 
> descent and also conjugate gradient. We could use them as a basis for some 
> least-squares solvers (and also keep the very efficient and specialized 
> Levenberg-Marquardt too).
> Based on email exchange with Luc Maisonobe entitled [math] Minimizer on 
> 1/15/08.
