47 Abstract Minimizer class, defining the interface for the various minimizer
48 (like Minuit2, Minuit, GSL, etc..) in ROOT.
49 Plug-in's exist in ROOT to be able to instantiate the derived classes without linking the library
50 using the static function ROOT::Math::Factory::CreateMinimizer.
51
52 Here is the list of all possible minimizers and their respective methods (algorithms) that can be instantiated:
53 The name shown below can be used to create them. More documentation can be found in the respective class
54
55 - Minuit (class TMinuitMinimizer)
56 - Migrad (default)
57 - MigradImproved (Migrad with adding a method to improve minimization when ends-up in a local minimum, see par. 6.3 of [Minuit tutorial on Function Minimization](https://seal.web.cern.ch/documents/minuit/mntutorial.pdf))
58 - Simplex
59 - Minimize (a combination of Simplex + Migrad)
60 - Minimize
61 - Scan
62 - Seek
63
64 - Minuit2 (class ROOT::Minuit2::Minuit2Minimizer)
65 - Migrad (default)
66 - Simplex
67 - Minimize
68 - Fumili (Fumili2)
69 - Scan
70
71 - Fumili (class TFumiliMinimizer)
72
73 - GSLMultiMin (class ROOT::Math::GSLMinimizer) available when ROOT is built with `mathmore` support
74 - BFGS2 (Default)
75 - BFGS
76 - ConjugateFR
77 - ConjugatePR
78 - SteepestDescent
79
80 - GSLMultiFit (class ROOT::Math::GSLNLMinimizer) available when ROOT is built `mathmore` support
81
82 - GSLSimAn (class ROOT::Math::GSLSimAnMinimizer) available when ROOT is built with `mathmore` support
83
84 - Genetic (class ROOT::Math::GeneticMinimizer)
85
86 - RMinimizer (class ROOT::Math::RMinimizer) available when ROOT is built with `r` support
87 - BFGS (default)
88 - L-BFGS-S
89 - Nelder-Mead
90 - CG
91 - and more methods, see the Details in the documentation of the function `optimix` of the [optmix R package](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/optimx/optimx.pdf)
92
93
94 The Minimizer class provides the interface to perform the minimization including
95
96
97 In addition to provide the API for function minimization (via ROOT::Math::Minimizer::Minimize) the Minimizer class provides:
98 - the interface for setting the function to be minimized. The objective function passed to the Minimizer must implement the multi-dimensional generic interface
99 ROOT::Math::IBaseFunctionMultiDim. If the function provides gradient calculation (e.g. implementing the ROOT::Math::IGradientFunctionMultiDim interface)
100 the gradient will be used by the Minimizer class, when needed. There are convenient classes for the users to wrap their own functions in this required interface for minimization.
101 These are the `ROOT::Math::Functor` class and the `ROOT::Math::GradFunctor` class for wrapping functions providing both evaluation and gradient. Some methods, like Fumili, Fumili2 and GSLMultiFit are
102 specialized method for least-square and also likelihood minimizations. They require then that the given function implements in addition
103 the `ROOT::Math::FitMethodFunction` interface.
104 - The interface for setting the initial values for the function variables (which are the parameters in
105 of the model function in case of solving for fitting) and specifying their limits.
106 - The interface to set and retrieve basic minimization parameters. These parameter are controlled by the class `ROOT::Math::MinimizerOptions`.
107 When no parameters are specified the default ones are used. Specific Minimizer options can also be passed via the `MinimizerOptions` class.
108 For the list of the available option parameter one must look at the documentation of the corresponding derived class.
109 - The interface to retrieve the result of minimization ( minimum X values, function value, gradient, error on the minimum, etc...)
110 - The interface to perform a Scan, Hesse or a Contour plot (for the minimizers that support this, i.e. Minuit and Minuit2)
111
112 An example on how to use this interface is the tutorial NumericalMinimization.C in the tutorials/fit directory.
