5. Newton-Gauss Algorithm iv) Iteration until convergence Convergence Criterion Depending on the data, ssq can be very small or very large. Therefore, a convergence criterion analyzing the relative change in ssq has to be applied. The iterations are stopped once the absolute change is less than a preset value, , typically  =10 -4 ssq old - ssq Abs ( ) ≤  ssq old

7. Error Estimation The availability of estimates for the standard deviations of the fitted parameters is a crucial advantage of the Newton- Gauss algorithm. Hess matrix H = J T J The inverted Hessian matrix H -1, is the variance- covariance matrix of the fitted parameters. The diagonal elements contain information on the parameter variances and the off-diagonal elements the covariances.  i =  A (d i,i ) 0.5  A = ( ) 0.5 nt × n – (np + nc × n ) ssq

25. The Marquardt modification Generally, The Newton-Gauss method converges rapidly, quadratically near the minimum. However, if the initial estimates are poor, the functional approximation by the Taylor series expansion and the linearization of the problem becomes invalid. This can lead to divergence of the ssq and failure of the algorithm. H = J T J  p = - (H + mp × I) -1 J T r(p 0 ) The Marquardt parameter (mp) is initially set to zero. If divergence of the ssq occurs, then the mp is introduce (given a value of 1) and increased (multiplication by 10 per iteration) until the ssq begins to converge. Increasing the mp shortens the shift vector and direct it to the direction of steepest descent. Once the ssq convergences the magnitude of the mp is reduced (division by 3 per iteration) and eventually set to zero when the break criterion is reached.
