Hi all,
I am Nicolas Del Piano, and currently studying the last year of computer science career. I was searching for a GSoC project that involves mathematical concepts, and I found one very interesting. I have experience on python programming and I studied calculus, so I have a background of the problem context.
I am interested on the implementation and testing of Levenberg-Marquardt / trust region nonlinear least squares algorithm.
Here are some useful links, that I have searched to having a reference about the problem:
http://ananth.in/docs/lmtut.pdf (Introduction) www.cs.nyu.edu/~roweis/notes/lm.pdf (Optimization) http://scribblethink.org/Computer/Javanumeric/index.html (java implementation)
I would be glad if there is an interested mentor to discuss the issues, talk about the problem and its possible implementations, and provide me some support and guide.
Thanks!
Regards.
