class TLinearMinimizer: public ROOT::Math::Minimizer


  TLinearMinimizer, simple class implementing the ROOT::Math::Minimizer interface using
  TLinearFitter.
  This class uses TLinearFitter to find directly (by solving a system of linear equations)
  the minimum of a
  least-square function which has a linear dependence in the fit parameters.
  This class is not used directly, but via the ROOT::Fitter class, when calling the
  LinearFit method. It is instantiates using the plug-in manager (plug-in name is "Linear")

Function documentation

TLinearMinimizer(int type = 0)
 Default constructor implementation.
 type is not used - needed for consistency with other minimizer plug-ins
TLinearMinimizer(const char* type)
 constructor passing a type of algorithm, (supported now robust via LTS regression)
~TLinearMinimizer()
 Destructor implementation.
TLinearMinimizer(const TLinearMinimizer& )
 Implementation of copy constructor.
void SetFunction(const ROOT::Math::IMultiGenFunction & )
 Set function to be minimized. Flag an error since only support Gradient objective functions
void SetFunction(const ROOT::Math::IMultiGradFunction & objfunc)
 Set the function to be minimized. The function must be a Chi2 gradient function
 When performing a linear fit we need the basis functions, which are the partial derivatives with respect to the parameters of the model function.
bool SetFixedVariable(unsigned int , const string& , double )
 set a fixed variable.
bool Minimize()
 find directly the minimum of the chi2 function
 solving the linear equation. Use  TVirtualFitter::Eval.
bool SetVariable(unsigned int , const string& , double , double )
 set free variable (dummy impl. )
{ return false; }
double MinValue() const
 return minimum function value
{ return fMinVal; }
double Edm() const
 return expected distance reached from the minimum
{ return 0; }
const double * X() const
 return  pointer to X values at the minimum
{ return &fParams.front(); }
const double * MinGradient() const
 return pointer to gradient values at the minimum
{ return 0; }
unsigned int NCalls() const
 number of function calls to reach the minimum
{ return 0; }
unsigned int NDim() const
 this is <= Function().NDim() which is the total
 number of variables (free+ constrained ones)
{ return fDim; }
unsigned int NFree() const
 number of free variables (real dimension of the problem)
 this is <= Function().NDim() which is the total
{ return fNFree; }
bool ProvidesError() const

       The ordering of the variables is the same as in errors

int CovMatrixStatus() const
 return covariance matrix status
