 Multidimensional Fits in ROOT.
 ## Overview
 A common problem encountered in different fields of applied science is
 to find an expression for one physical quantity in terms of several
 others, which are directly measurable.

 An example in high energy physics is the evaluation of the momentum of
 a charged particle from the observation of its trajectory in a magnetic
 field.  The problem is to relate the momentum of the particle to the
 observations, which may consists of positional measurements at
 intervals along the particle trajectory.

 The exact functional relationship between the measured quantities
 (e.g., the space-points) and the dependent quantity (e.g., the
 momentum) is in general not known, but one possible way of solving the
 problem, is to find an expression which reliably approximates the
 dependence of the momentum on the observations.

 This explicit function of the observations can be obtained by a
 <I>least squares</I> fitting procedure applied to a representive
 sample of the data, for which the dependent quantity (e.g., momentum)
 and the independent observations are known. The function can then be
 used to compute the quantity of interest for new observations of the
 independent variables.

 This class <TT>TMultiDimFit</TT> implements such a procedure in
 ROOT. It is largely based on the CERNLIB MUDIFI package [2].
 Though the basic concepts are still sound, and
 therefore kept, a few implementation details have changed, and this
 class can take advantage of MINUIT [4] to improve the errors
 of the fitting, thanks to the class TMinuit.

 In [5] and [6] H. Wind demonstrates the utility
 of this procedure in the context of tracking, magnetic field
 parameterisation, and so on. The outline of the method used in this
 class is based on Winds discussion, and I refer these two excellents
 text for more information.

 And example of usage is given in $ROOTSYS/tutorials/fit/multidimfit.C.

 ## The Method
 Let \f$ D \f$ by the dependent quantity of interest, which depends smoothly
 on the observable quantities \f$ x_1, \ldots, x_N \f$ which we'll denote by
 \f$\mathbf{x}\f$. Given a training sample of \f$ M\f$ tuples of the form, (TMultiDimFit::AddRow)

 \f[
     \left(\mathbf{x}_j, D_j, E_j\right)\quad,
 \f]
 where \f$\mathbf{x}_j = (x_{1,j},\ldots,x_{N,j})\f$ are \f$ N\f$ independent
 variables, \f$ D_j\f$ is the known, quantity dependent at \f$\mathbf{x}_j\f$ and \f$ E_j\f$ is
 the square error in \f$ D_j\f$, the class will try to find the parameterization
 \f[
     D_p(\mathbf{x}) = \sum_{l=1}^{L} c_l \prod_{i=1}^{N} p_{li}\left(x_i\right)
     = \sum_{l=1}^{L} c_l F_l(\mathbf{x})
 \f]
 such that

 \f[
     S \equiv \sum_{j=1}^{M} \left(D_j - D_p\left(\mathbf{x}_j\right)\right)^2
 \f]
 is minimal. Here \f$p_{li}(x_i)\f$ are monomials, or Chebyshev or Legendre
 polynomials, labelled \f$l = 1, \ldots, L\f$, in each variable \f$ x_i\f$,\f$ i=1, \ldots, N\f$.

 So what TMultiDimFit does, is to determine the number of terms \f$ L\f$, and then \f$ L\f$ terms
 (or functions) \f$ F_l\f$, and the \f$ L\f$ coefficients \f$ c_l\f$, so that \f$ S\f$ is minimal
 (TMultiDimFit::FindParameterization).

 Of course it's more than a little unlikely that \f$ S\f$ will ever become
 exact zero as a result of the procedure outlined below. Therefore, the
 user is asked to provide a minimum relative error \f$ \epsilon\f$ (TMultiDimFit::SetMinRelativeError),
 and \f$ S\f$ will be considered minimized when

 \f[
   R = \frac{S}{\sum_{j=1}^M D_j^2} < \epsilon
 \f]
 Optionally, the user may impose a functional expression by specifying
 the powers of each variable in \f$ L\f$ specified functions \f$ F_1, \ldots,F_L\f$ (TMultiDimFit::SetPowers).
 In that case, only the coefficients \f$ c_l\f$ is calculated by the class.

 ## Limiting the Number of Terms
 As always when dealing with fits, there's a real chance of *over fitting*. As is well-known, it's
 always possible to fit an \f$ N-1\f$ polynomial in \f$ x\f$ to \f$ N\f$ points \f$ (x,y)\f$ with
 \f$\chi^2 = 0\f$, but the polynomial is not likely to fit new data at all [1].
 Therefore, the user is asked to provide an upper limit, \f$ L_{max}\f$ to the number of terms in
 \f$ D_p\f$ (TMultiDimFit::SetMaxTerms).

 However, since there's an infinite number of \f$ F_l\f$ to choose from, the
 user is asked to give the maximum power. \f$ P_{max,i}\f$, of each variable
 \f$ x_i\f$ to be considered in the minimization of \f$ S\f$ (TMultiDimFit::SetMaxPowers).

 One way of obtaining values for the maximum power in variable \f$ i\f$, is
 to perform a regular fit to the dependent quantity \f$ D\f$, using a
 polynomial only in \f$ x_i\f$. The maximum power is \f$ P_{max,i}\f$ is then the
 power that does not significantly improve the one-dimensional
 least-square fit over \f$ x_i\f$ to \f$ D\f$ [5].

 There are still a huge amount of possible choices for \f$ F_l\f$; in fact
 there are \f$\prod_{i=1}^{N} (P_{max,i} + 1)\f$ possible
 choices. Obviously we need to limit this. To this end, the user is
 asked to set a *power control limit*, \f$ Q\f$ (TMultiDimFit::SetPowerLimit), and a function
 \f$ F_l\f$ is only accepted if
 \f[
   Q_l = \sum_{i=1}^{N} \frac{P_{li}}{P_{max,i}} < Q
 \f]
 where \f$ P_{li}\f$ is the leading power of variable \f$ x_i\f$ in function \f$ F_l\f$ (TMultiDimFit::MakeCandidates).
 So the number of functions increase with \f$ Q\f$ (1, 2 is fine, 5 is way out).

 ## Gram-Schmidt Orthogonalisation</A>
 To further reduce the number of functions in the final expression,
 only those functions that significantly reduce \f$ S\f$ is chosen. What
 `significant' means, is chosen by the user, and will be
 discussed below (see [2.3](TMultiFimFit.html#sec:selectiondetail)).

 The functions \f$ F_l\f$ are generally not orthogonal, which means one will
 have to evaluate all possible \f$ F_l\f$'s over all data-points before
 finding the most significant [1]. We can, however, do
 better then that. By applying the *modified Gram-Schmidt
 orthogonalisation* algorithm [5] [3] to the
 functions \f$ F_l\f$, we can evaluate the contribution to the reduction of
 \f$ S\f$ from each function in turn, and we may delay the actual inversion
 of the curvature-matrix (TMultiDimFit::MakeGramSchmidt).

 So we are let to consider an \f$ M\times L\f$ matrix \f$\mathsf{F}\f$, an
 element of which is given by
 \f[
   f_{jl} = F_j\left(x_{1j} , x_{2j}, \ldots, x_{Nj}\right)
   = F_l(\mathbf{x}_j)\,  \quad\mbox{with}~j=1,2,\ldots,M,
 \f]
 where \f$ j\f$ labels the \f$ M\f$ rows in the training sample and \f$ l\f$ labels
 \f$ L\f$ functions of \f$ N\f$ variables, and \f$ L \leq M\f$. That is, \f$ f_{jl}\f$ is
 the term (or function) numbered \f$ l\f$ evaluated at the data point
 \f$ j\f$. We have to normalise \f$\mathbf{x}_j\f$ to \f$ [-1,1]\f$ for this to
 succeed [5] (TMultiDimFit::MakeNormalized). We then define a
 matrix \f$\mathsf{W}\f$ of which the columns \f$\mathbf{w}_j\f$ are given by
 \f{eqnarray*}{
   \mathbf{w}_1 &=& \mathbf{f}_1 = F_1\left(\mathbf x_1\right)\\
   \mathbf{w}_l &=& \mathbf{f}_l - \sum^{l-1}_{k=1} \frac{\mathbf{f}_l \bullet
   \mathbf{w}_k}{\mathbf{w}_k^2}\mathbf{w}_k\,.
 \f}
 and \f$\mathbf{w}_{l}\f$ is the component of \f$\mathbf{f}_{l} \f$ orthogonal
 to \f$\mathbf{w}_{1}, \ldots, \mathbf{w}_{l-1}\f$. Hence we obtain [3],
 \f[
   \mathbf{w}_k\bullet\mathbf{w}_l = 0\quad\mbox{if}~k \neq l\quad.
 \f]
 We now take as a new model \f$\mathsf{W}\mathbf{a}\f$. We thus want to
 minimize
 \f[
   S\equiv \left(\mathbf{D} - \mathsf{W}\mathbf{a}\right)^2\quad,
 \f]
 where \f$\mathbf{D} = \left(D_1,\ldots,D_M\right)\f$ is a vector of the
 dependent quantity in the sample. Differentiation with respect to
 \f$ a_j\f$ gives, using [6], <a name="eq:dS2"></a>
 \f[
   \mathbf{D}\bullet\mathbf{w}_l - a_l\mathbf{w}_l^2 = 0
 \f]
 or
 \f[
   a_l = \frac{\mathbf{D}_l\bullet\mathbf{w}_l}{\mathbf{w}_l^2}
 \f]
 Let \f$ S_j\f$ be the sum of squares of residuals when taking \f$ j\f$ functions
 into account. Then
 \f[
   S_l = \left[\mathbf{D} - \sum^l_{k=1} a_k\mathbf{w}_k\right]^2
   = \mathbf{D}^2 - 2\mathbf{D} \sum^l_{k=1} a_k\mathbf{w}_k
   + \sum^l_{k=1} a_k^2\mathbf{w}_k^2
 \f]
 Using [9], we see that
 \f{eqnarray*}{
   S_l &=& \mathbf{D}^2 - 2 \sum^l_{k=1} a_k^2\mathbf{w}_k^2 +
   \sum^j_{k=1} a_k^2\mathbf{w}_k^2\nonumber\\
   &=& \mathbf{D}^2 - \sum^l_{k=1} a_k^2\mathbf{w}_k^2\nonumber\\
   &=& \mathbf{D}^2 - \sum^l_{k=1} \frac{\left(\mathbf D\bullet \mathbf
   w_k\right)}{\mathbf w_k^2}
 \f}
 So for each new function \f$ F_l\f$ included in the model, we get a
 reduction of the sum of squares of residuals of \f$a_l^2\mathbf{w}_l^2\f$,
 where \f$\mathbf{w}_l\f$ is given by [4] and \f$ a_l\f$ by [9]. Thus, using
 the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalisation, we
 can decide if we want to include this function in the final model,
 *before* the matrix inversion.

 ## Function Selection Based on Residual
 Supposing that \f$ L-1\f$ steps of the procedure have been performed, the
 problem now is to consider the \f$L^{\mbox{th}}\f$ function.

 The sum of squares of residuals can be written as
 \f[
   S_L = \textbf{D}^T\bullet\textbf{D} -
   \sum^L_{l=1}a^2_l\left(\textbf{w}_l^T\bullet\textbf{w}_l\right)
 \f]
 where the relation [9] have been taken into account. The
 contribution of the \f$L^{\mbox{th}}\f$ function to the reduction of S, is
 given by
 \f[
   \Delta S_L = a^2_L\left(\textbf{w}_L^T\bullet\textbf{w}_L\right)
 \f]
 Two test are now applied to decide whether this \f$L^{\mbox{th}}\f$
 function is to be included in the final expression, or not.

 ## Test 1
 Denoting by \f$ H_{L-1}\f$ the subspace spanned by \f$\textbf{w}_1,\ldots,\textbf{w}_{L-1}\f$
 the function \d$\textbf{w}_L\d$ is by construction (see 4) the projection of the function
 \f$ F_L\f$ onto the direction perpendicular to \f$ H_{L-1}\f$. Now, if the
 length of \f$\textbf{w}_L\f$ (given by \f$\textbf{w}_L\bullet\textbf{w}_L\f$)
 is very small compared to the length of \f$\textbf{f}_L\f$ this new
 function can not contribute much to the reduction of the sum of
 squares of residuals. The test consists then in calculating the angle
 \f$ \theta \f$ between the two vectors \f$\textbf{w}_L\f$ \f$ \textbf {f}_L\f$
 (see also figure 1) and requiring that it's
 *greater* then a threshold value which the user must set (TMultiDimFit::SetMinAngle).

 \image html multidimfit_img86.gif "Figure 1: (a) angle \f$\theta\f$ between \f$\textbf{w}_l\f$ and \f$\textbf{f}_L\f$, (b) angle \f$ \phi \f$ between \f$\textbf{w}_L\f$ and \f$\textbf{D}\f$"

 ## Test 2
 Let \f$\textbf{D}\f$ be the data vector to be fitted. As illustrated in
 figure 1, the \f$L^{\mbox{th}}\f$ function \f$\textbf{w}_L\f$
 will contribute significantly to the reduction of \f$ S\f$, if the angle
 \f$\phi^\prime\f$ between \f$\textbf{w}_L\f$ and \f$\textbf{D}\f$ is smaller than
 an upper limit \f$ \phi \f$, defined by the user (MultiDimFit::SetMaxAngle)

 However, the method automatically readjusts the value of this angle
 while fitting is in progress, in order to make the selection criteria
 less and less difficult to be fulfilled. The result is that the
 functions contributing most to the reduction of \f$ S\f$ are chosen first
 (TMultiDimFit::TestFunction).

 In case \f$ \phi \f$ isn't defined, an alternative method of
 performing this second test is used: The \f$L^{\mbox{th}}\f$
 function \f$\textbf{f}_L\f$ is accepted if (refer also to equation (13))
 \f[
   \Delta S_L > \frac{S_{L-1}}{L_{max}-L}
 \f]
 where  \f$ S_{L-1}\f$ is the sum of the \f$ L-1\f$ first residuals from the
 \f$ L-1\f$ functions previously accepted; and \f$ L_{max}\f$ is the total number
 of functions allowed in the final expression of the fit (defined by
 user).

 From this we see, that by restricting \f$ L_{max}\f$ -- the number of
 terms in the final model -- the fit is more difficult to perform,
 since the above selection criteria is more limiting.

 The more coefficients we evaluate, the more the sum of squares of
 residuals \f$ S\f$ will be reduced. We can evaluate \f$ S\f$ before inverting
 \f$\mathsf{B}\f$ as shown below.

 ## Coefficients and Coefficient Errors
 Having found a parameterization, that is the \f$ F_l\f$'s and \f$ L\f$, that
 minimizes \f$ S\f$, we still need to determine the coefficients
 \f$ c_l\f$. However, it's a feature of how we choose the significant
 functions, that the evaluation of the \f$ c_l\f$'s becomes trivial [5]. To derive
 \f$\mathbf{c}\f$, we first note that
 equation (4) can be written as
 \f[
   \mathsf{F} = \mathsf{W}\mathsf{B}
 \f]
 where
 \f{eqnarray*}{
   b_{ij} = \frac{\mathbf{f}_j \bullet \mathbf{w}_i}{\mathbf{w}_i^2}
     & \mbox{if} & i < j\\
   1 & \mbox{if} & i = j\\
   0 & \mbox{if} & i > j
 \f}
 Consequently, \f$\mathsf{B}\f$ is an upper triangle matrix, which can be
 readily inverted. So we now evaluate
 \f[
   \mathsf{F}\mathsf{B}^{-1} = \mathsf{W}
 \f]
 The model \f$\mathsf{W}\mathbf{a}\f$ can therefore be written as
 \f$(\mathsf{F}\mathsf{B}^{-1})\mathbf{a} = \mathsf{F}(\mathsf{B}^{-1}\mathbf{a})\,.\f$

 The original model \f$\mathsf{F}\mathbf{c}\f$ is therefore identical with
 this if
 \f[
   \mathbf{c} = \left(\mathsf{B}^{-1}\mathbf{a}\right) =
   \left[\mathbf{a}^T\left(\mathsf{B}^{-1}\right)^T\right]^T\,.
 \f]
 The reason we use \f$\left(\mathsf{B}^{-1}\right)^T\f$ rather then
 \f$\mathsf{B}^{-1}\f$ is to save storage, since \f$\left(\mathsf{B}^{-1}\right)^T\f$
 can be stored in the same matrix as \f$\mathsf{B}\f$ (TMultiDimFit::MakeCoefficients).
 The errors in the coefficients is calculated by inverting the curvature matrix
 of the non-orthogonal functions \f$ f_{lj}\f$ [1] (TMultiDimFit::MakeCoefficientErrors).

 ## Considerations
 It's important to realize that the training sample should be
 representive of the problem at hand, in particular along the borders
 of the region of interest. This is because the algorithm presented
 here, is a *interpolation*, rather then a *extrapolation* [5].

 Also, the independent variables \f$ x_{i}\f$ need to be linear
 independent, since the procedure will perform poorly if they are not
 [5]. One can find an linear transformation from ones
 original variables \f$ \xi_{i}\f$ to a set of linear independent variables
 \f$ x_{i}\f$, using a *Principal Components Analysis* (see TPrincipal), and
 then use the transformed variable as input to this class [5] [6].

 H. Wind also outlines a method for parameterising a multidimensional
 dependence over a multidimensional set of variables. An example
 of the method from [5], is a follows (please refer to
 [5] for a full discussion):

 1. Define \f$\mathbf{P} = (P_1, \ldots, P_5)\f$ are the 5 dependent
 quantities that define a track.
 2. Compute, for \f$ M\f$ different values of \f$\mathbf{P}\f$, the tracks
 through the magnetic field, and determine the corresponding
 \f$\mathbf{x} = (x_1, \ldots, x_N)\f$.
 3. Use the simulated observations to determine, with a simple
 approximation, the values of \f$\mathbf{P}_j\f$. We call these values
 \f$\mathbf{P}^\prime_j, j = 1, \ldots, M\f$.
 4. Determine from \f$\mathbf{x}\f$ a set of at least five relevant
 coordinates \f$\mathbf{x}^\prime\f$, using contrains, *or
 alternative:*
 5. Perform a Principal Component Analysis (using TPrincipal), and use
 to get a linear transformation \f$\mathbf{x} \rightarrow \mathbf{x}^\prime\f$, so that
 \f$\mathbf{x}^\prime\f$ are constrained and linear independent.
 6. Perform a Principal Component Analysis on
 \f$Q_i = P_i / P^\prime_i\, i = 1, \ldots, 5\f$, to get linear
 indenpendent (among themselves, but not independent of \f$\mathbf{x}\f$) quantities
 \f$\mathbf{Q}^\prime\f$
 7. For each component \f$Q^\prime_i\f$ make a mutlidimensional fit,
 using \f$\mathbf{x}^\prime\f$ as the variables, thus determing a set of
 coefficents \f$\mathbf{c}_i\f$.

 To process data, using this parameterisation, do
 1. Test wether the observation \f$\mathbf{x}\f$ within the domain of
 the parameterization, using the result from the Principal Component
 Analysis.
 2. Determine \f$\mathbf{P}^\prime\f$ as before.
 3. Detetmine \f$\mathbf{x}^\prime\f$ as before.
 4. Use the result of the fit to determind \f$\mathbf{Q}^\prime\f$.
 5. Transform back to \f$\mathbf{P}\f$ from \f$\mathbf{Q}^\prime\f$, using
 the result from the Principal Component Analysis.

 ## Testing the parameterization
 The class also provides functionality for testing the, over the
 training sample, found parameterization (TMultiDimFit::Fit). This is done by passing
 the class a test sample of \f$ M_t\f$ tuples of the form
 \f$(\mathbf{x}_{t,j},D_{t,j}, E_{t,j})\f$, where \f$\mathbf{x}_{t,j}\f$ are the independent
 variables, \f$ D_{t,j}\f$ the known, dependent quantity, and \f$ E_{t,j}\f$ is
 the square error in \f$ D_{t,j}\f$ (TMultiDimFit::AddTestRow).

 The parameterization is then evaluated at every \f$\mathbf{x}_t\f$ in the
 test sample, and
 \f[
   S_t \equiv \sum_{j=1}^{M_t} \left(D_{t,j} -
   D_p\left(\mathbf{x}_{t,j}\right)\right)^2
 \f]
 is evaluated. The relative error over the test sample
 \f[
   R_t = \frac{S_t}{\sum_{j=1}^{M_t} D_{t,j}^2}
 \f]
 should not be to low or high compared to \f$ R\f$ from the training
 sample. Also, multiple correlation coefficient from both samples should
 be fairly close, otherwise one of the samples is not representive of
 the problem. A large difference in the reduced \f$ \chi^2\f$ over the two
 samples indicate an over fit, and the maximum number of terms in the
 parameterisation should be reduced.

 It's possible to use [4] to further improve the fit, using the test sample.
