Fix typos in glog search.
Split the error messages for include and lib.
Enable building of tests by default.
Made building on homebrew installations a bit better.
Remove temporary variables for glog and gflags.
1. Make the mechanism for writing problems to disk, generic and
controllable using an enum DumpType visible in the API.
2. Instead of single file containing protocol buffers, now matrices can
be written in a matlab/octave friendly format. This is now the default.
3. The support for writing problems to disk is moved into
linear_least_squares_problem.cc/h
4. SparseMatrix now has a ToTextFile virtual method which is
implemented by each of its subclasses to write a (i,j,s) triplets.
5. Minor changes to simple_bundle_adjuster to enable logging at startup.
- Rename BlockDiagonalPreconditioner to BlockJacobiPreconditioner
- Include the diagonal in the block jacobi preconditioner.
- Better flag help for eta.
- Enable test for CGNR
- Rename CONJUGATE_GRADIENTS to CGNR.
- etc.
Building Ceres requires version 0.3.1 or better of glog.
Fedora 16 ships with a busted version 0.3.
issue 15 contains the gory details.
Added a note to the build documentation to this effect.
This adds a new LinearOperator which implements symmetric
products of a matrix, and a new CGNR solver to leverage
CG to directly solve the normal equations. This also
includes a block diagonal preconditioner. In experiments
on problem-16, the non-preconditioned version is about
1/5 the speed of SPARSE_SCHUR, and the preconditioned
version using block cholesky is about 20% slower than
SPARSE_SCHUR.
