From the algorithm, we can see that it tries different damping factor until it gets a good one by the error. Is the damping factor related to the eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix?

The damping factor is expressed in terms of the objective function that one seeks to minimise, as described in A new approach for determining damping factors in Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm for solving an inverse heat conduction problem (2017).
