Detailed Description

2nd order resolution function evaluator

This is an automatic evaluator for arbitrary functions of HKL, most commonly used for evaluating a function of resolution (such a mean F^2 or sigmaa), although more general tasks including local scaling of reflections and anisotropic functions can also be handled. This form is for target functions which approach zero quadratically, e.g. least-squares targets.

Note:

This version implements a minimiser which uses both Newton-Raphson and gradient steps depending on the situation. It can be used for non-quadratic targets or non-linear basis functions.

To evaluate a resolution function, this class must be provided with two objects:

• The basis function (and gradients), which describes the value of the function for any reflection given a set of paramters.
• The target function (and derivatives), which is used to determine the values of the basis function parameters.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

clipper::ResolutionFn_nonlinear::ResolutionFn_nonlinear	(	const HKL_info &	hkl_info,
		const BasisFn_base &	basisfn,
		const TargetFn_base &	targetfn,
		const std::vector< ftype > &	params,
		const ftype	damp = 0.0,
		const bool	debug = false
	)

constructor: need reflections, basis fn and target fn.

The constructor performs the full minimisation calculation.

Parameters:

hkl_info	HKL_info object which provides the reflection list.
basisfn	The basis function used to describe the desired property.
targetfn	The target function to be minimised.
damp_	If > 0.0, shifts are fdamped during early cycles to help convergence with difficult bases/target conbinations
