Gilles commented on MATH-1014:
------------------------------
Some time ago, it is has been noted on the ML that the Levenberg-Marquardt
algorithm was not the most efficient for fitting a polynomial.
Another optimizer can be plugged into the code when available.
Deprecated classes must be removed when preparing the next major release.
> Remove optimizer from constructor of "CurveFitter" subclasses

> In package "o.a.c.m.fitting", the constructor of the concrete subclasses of
> "CurveFitter" (currently: "PolynomialFitter", "GaussianFitter",
> "HarmonicFitter") takes a "MultivariateVectorOptimizer" argument.
> However, assuming that there is _one_ best choice for the optimizer (given
> the parametric function), this argument should not be left to the user's
> choice (i.e. it should be hidden within the class, and the best optimizer be
> transparently selected).
> Thus, I would propose to deprecate the non-default constructor.
