Derivatives

|
===========
|
|
|
|
The single most important bit of advice for users of Ceres Solver is
|
|
to use analytic/automatic differentiation when you can. It is tempting
|
|
to take the easy way out and use numeric differentiation. This is a
|
|
bad idea. Numeric differentiation is slow, ill-behaved, hard to get
|
|
right and results in poor convergence behaviour.
