I am currently working on a problem involving the minimization of the $\chi^2$ deviation between a model matrix ($C_\text{model}$) and a measured matrix ($C_\text{measured}$). by finding the best-fit ...

Given a matrix $L\in \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3}$, I'm looking for a method to find the closest (in a least squares sense) product of a non-uniform scaling matrix and a rotation matrix: $$ \min_{s\in\...

Problem setting : $ \underset{x}{\text{min}} \|Ax-b\|$, where $A \in \mathcal{R}^{m \times n}, m\gg n $, full rank. L1 loss is used for robust estimation using IRLS. The corresponding equation to ...

Consider column vectors $\boldsymbol{z}_i$, $\quad i=1,\dots,n$. Each $\boldsymbol{z}_i$ has $j$ elements and can be expressed as $\boldsymbol{z}_i = \begin{bmatrix} \boldsymbol{x}_i \\ \boldsymbol{y}...

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?
