For those of us who have projects dependent on the deprecated Optimization methods (using Jacobians for differentiable functions), would someone consider updating the User Guide to give optimization examples using the new methods?
Instead of Jacobians, the new methods appear to use DerivativeStructure objects. The current version of the user guide, which is located at http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-math/userguide/optimization.html, only describes the deprecated methods. In the meantime, if some enlightened soul could post a quick migration example to this mailing list, that would be awesome. I'm currently using the LevenbergMarquardtOptimizer with the DifferentiableMultivariateVectorFunction for the derivative so any pointers on how to implement similar functionality using the non-deprecated methods would be most helpful. I can't be the only one stuck on this issue. Thanks! Nigel
