constrained_least_squares_solver Derived Type

type, public, extends(constrained_equation_solver) :: constrained_least_squares_solver

Defines a constrained least-squares solver using Powell's trust region method. The method seeks a correction that reduces the residual vector while remaining inside a trust region of size and the bounds . The trial step is formed from a Gauss-Newton step a steepest-descent step and a dogleg combination with chosen so that . If the trust-region step is rejected, a backtracking line search is used to improve the step acceptance.
