; NAME:
;   MPFITFUN
;
; AUTHOR:
;   Craig B. Markwardt, NASA/GSFC Code 662, Greenbelt, MD 20770
;   craigm@lheamail.gsfc.nasa.gov
;   UPDATED VERSIONs can be found on my WEB PAGE: 
;      http://cow.physics.wisc.edu/~craigm/idl/idl.html
;
; PURPOSE:
;   Perform Levenberg-Marquardt least-squares fit to IDL function
;
; MAJOR TOPICS:
;   Curve and Surface Fitting
;
; CALLING SEQUENCE:
;   parms = MPFITFUN(MYFUNCT, X, Y, ERR, start_params, ...)
;
; DESCRIPTION:
;
;  MPFITFUN fits a user-supplied model -- in the form of an IDL
;  function -- to a set of user-supplied data.  MPFITFUN calls
;  MPFIT, the MINPACK-1 least-squares minimizer, to do the main
;  work.
;
;  Given the data and their uncertainties, MPFITFUN finds the best set
;  of model parameters which match the data (in a least-squares
;  sense) and returns them in an array.
;  
;  The user must supply the following items:
;   - An array of independent variable values ("X").
;   - An array of "measured" *dependent* variable values ("Y").
;   - An array of "measured" 1-sigma uncertainty values ("ERR").
;   - The name of an IDL function which computes Y given X ("MYFUNCT").
;   - Starting guesses for all of the parameters ("START_PARAMS").
;
;  There are very few restrictions placed on X, Y or MYFUNCT.  Simply
;  put, MYFUNCT must map the "X" values into "Y" values given the
;  model parameters.  The "X" values may represent any independent
;  variable (not just Cartesian X), and indeed may be multidimensional
;  themselves.  For example, in the application of image fitting, X
;  may be a 2xN array of image positions.
;
;  Data values of NaN or Infinity for "Y", "ERR" or "WEIGHTS" will be
;  ignored as missing data if the NAN keyword is set.  Otherwise, they
;  may cause the fitting loop to halt with an error message.  Note
;  that the fit will still halt if the model function, or its
;  derivatives, produces infinite or NaN values.
;
;  MPFITFUN carefully avoids passing large arrays where possible to
;  improve performance.
;
;  See below for an example of usage.
;
; USER FUNCTION
;
;  The user must define a function which returns the model value.  For
;  applications which use finite-difference derivatives -- the default
;  -- the user function should be declared in the following way:
;
;    FUNCTION MYFUNCT, X, P
;     ; The independent variable is X
;     ; Parameter values are passed in "P"
;     YMOD = ... computed model values at X ...
;     return, YMOD
;    END
;
;  The returned array YMOD must have the same dimensions and type as
;  the "measured" Y values.
;
;  User functions may also indicate a fatal error condition
;  using the ERROR_CODE common block variable, as described
;  below under the MPFIT_ERROR common block definition.

;  MPFIT by default calculates derivatives numerically via a finite
;  difference approximation.  However, the user function *may*
;  calculate the derivatives if desired, but only if the model
;  function is declared with an additional position parameter, DP, as
;  described below.
;
;  To enable explicit derivatives for all parameters, set
;  AUTODERIVATIVE=0.
;
;  When AUTODERIVATIVE=0, the user function is responsible for
;  calculating the derivatives of the user function with respect to
;  each parameter.  The user function should be declared as follows:
;
;    ;
;    ; MYFUNCT - example user function
;    ;   P - input parameter values (N-element array)
;    ;   DP - upon input, an N-vector indicating which parameters
;    ;          to compute derivatives for; 
;    ;        upon output, the user function must return
;    ;          an ARRAY(M,N) of derivatives in this keyword
;    ;   (keywords) - any other keywords specified by FUNCTARGS
;    ; RETURNS - function values
;    ;
;    FUNCTION MYFUNCT, x, p, dp [, (additional keywords if desired)]
;     model = F(x, p)         ;; Model function
;     
;     if n_params() GT 2 then begin
;       ; Create derivative and compute derivative array
;       requested = dp   ; Save original value of DP
;       dp = make_array(n_elements(x), n_elements(p), value=x[0]*0)
;
;       ; Compute derivative if requested by caller
;       for i = 0, n_elements(p)-1 do if requested(i) NE 0 then $
;         dp(*,i) = FGRAD(x, p, i)
;     endif
;    
;     return, resid
;    END
;
;  where FGRAD(x, p, i) is a model function which computes the
;  derivative of the model F(x,p) with respect to parameter P(i) at X.
;
;  Derivatives should be returned in the DP array. DP should be an
;  ARRAY(m,n) array, where m is the number of data points and n is the
;  number of parameters.  DP[i,j] is the derivative of the ith
;  function value with respect to the jth parameter.
;
;  MPFIT may not always request derivatives from the user function.
;  In those cases, the parameter DP is not passed.  Therefore
;  functions can use N_PARAMS() to indicate whether they must compute
;  the derivatives or not.
;
;  For additional information about explicit derivatives, including
;  additional settings and debugging options, see the discussion under
;  "EXPLICIT DERIVATIVES" and AUTODERIVATIVE in MPFIT.PRO.

;
; CONSTRAINING PARAMETER VALUES WITH THE PARINFO KEYWORD
;
;  The behavior of MPFIT can be modified with respect to each
;  parameter to be fitted.  A parameter value can be fixed; simple
;  boundary constraints can be imposed; limitations on the parameter
;  changes can be imposed; properties of the automatic derivative can
;  be modified; and parameters can be tied to one another.
;
;  These properties are governed by the PARINFO structure, which is
;  passed as a keyword parameter to MPFIT.
;
;  PARINFO should be an array of structures, one for each parameter.
;  Each parameter is associated with one element of the array, in
;  numerical order.  The structure can have the following entries
;  (none are required):
;  
;     .VALUE - the starting parameter value (but see the START_PARAMS
;              parameter for more information).
;  
;     .FIXED - a boolean value, whether the parameter is to be held
;              fixed or not.  Fixed parameters are not varied by
;              MPFIT, but are passed on to MYFUNCT for evaluation.
;  
;     .LIMITED - a two-element boolean array.  If the first/second
;                element is set, then the parameter is bounded on the
;                lower/upper side.  A parameter can be bounded on both
;                sides.  Both LIMITED and LIMITS must be given
;                together.
;  
;     .LIMITS - a two-element float or double array.  Gives the
;               parameter limits on the lower and upper sides,
;               respectively.  Zero, one or two of these values can be
;               set, depending on the values of LIMITED.  Both LIMITED
;               and LIMITS must be given together.
;  
;     .PARNAME - a string, giving the name of the parameter.  The
;                fitting code of MPFIT does not use this tag in any
;                way.  However, the default ITERPROC will print the
;                parameter name if available.
;  
;     .STEP - the step size to be used in calculating the numerical
;             derivatives.  If set to zero, then the step size is
;             computed automatically.  Ignored when AUTODERIVATIVE=0.
;             This value is superceded by the RELSTEP value.
;
;     .RELSTEP - the *relative* step size to be used in calculating
;                the numerical derivatives.  This number is the
;                fractional size of the step, compared to the
;                parameter value.  This value supercedes the STEP
;                setting.  If the parameter is zero, then a default
;                step size is chosen.
;
;     .MPSIDE - the sidedness of the finite difference when computing
;               numerical derivatives.  This field can take four
;               values:
;
;                  0 - one-sided derivative computed automatically
;                  1 - one-sided derivative (f(x+h) - f(x)  )/h
;                 -1 - one-sided derivative (f(x)   - f(x-h))/h
;                  2 - two-sided derivative (f(x+h) - f(x-h))/(2*h)
;
;              Where H is the STEP parameter described above.  The
;              "automatic" one-sided derivative method will chose a
;              direction for the finite difference which does not
;              violate any constraints.  The other methods do not
;              perform this check.  The two-sided method is in
;              principle more precise, but requires twice as many
;              function evaluations.  Default: 0.
;
;     .MPMAXSTEP - the maximum change to be made in the parameter
;                  value.  During the fitting process, the parameter
;                  will never be changed by more than this value in
;                  one iteration.
;
;                  A value of 0 indicates no maximum.  Default: 0.
;  
;     .TIED - a string expression which "ties" the parameter to other
;             free or fixed parameters as an equality constraint.  Any
;             expression involving constants and the parameter array P
;             are permitted.
;             Example: if parameter 2 is always to be twice parameter
;             1 then use the following: parinfo[2].tied = '2 * P[1]'.
;             Since they are totally constrained, tied parameters are
;             considered to be fixed; no errors are computed for them.
;             [ NOTE: the PARNAME can't be used in a TIED expression. ]
;
;     .MPPRINT - if set to 1, then the default ITERPROC will print the
;                parameter value.  If set to 0, the parameter value
;                will not be printed.  This tag can be used to
;                selectively print only a few parameter values out of
;                many.  Default: 1 (all parameters printed)
;
;     .MPFORMAT - IDL format string to print the parameter within
;                 ITERPROC.  Default: '(G20.6)'  (An empty string will
;                 also use the default.)
;
;  Future modifications to the PARINFO structure, if any, will involve
;  adding structure tags beginning with the two letters "MP".
;  Therefore programmers are urged to avoid using tags starting with
;  "MP", but otherwise they are free to include their own fields
;  within the PARINFO structure, which will be ignored by MPFIT.
;  
;  PARINFO Example:
;  parinfo = replicate({value:0.D, fixed:0, limited:[0,0], $
;                       limits:[0.D,0]}, 5)
;  parinfo[0].fixed = 1
;  parinfo[4].limited[0] = 1
;  parinfo[4].limits[0]  = 50.D
;  parinfo[*].value = [5.7D, 2.2, 500., 1.5, 2000.]
;  
;  A total of 5 parameters, with starting values of 5.7,
;  2.2, 500, 1.5, and 2000 are given.  The first parameter
;  is fixed at a value of 5.7, and the last parameter is
;  constrained to be above 50.
;
; COMPATIBILITY
;
;  This function is designed to work with IDL 5.0 or greater.
;  
;  Because TIED parameters rely on the EXECUTE() function, they cannot
;  be used with the free version of the IDL Virtual Machine.
;
;
; INPUTS:
;   MYFUNCT - a string variable containing the name of an IDL function.
;             This function computes the "model" Y values given the
;             X values and model parameters, as desribed above.
;
;   X - Array of independent variable values.
;
;   Y - Array of "measured" dependent variable values.  Y should have
;       the same data type as X.  The function MYFUNCT should map
;       X->Y.
;         NOTE: the following special cases apply:
;                * if Y is NaN or Infinite, and the NAN keyword is
;                  set, then the corresponding data point is ignored
;
;   ERR - Array of "measured" 1-sigma uncertainties.  ERR should have
;         the same data type as Y.  ERR is ignored if the WEIGHTS
;         keyword is specified.
;         NOTE: the following special cases apply:
;                * if ERR is zero, then the corresponding data point
;                  is ignored
;                * if ERR is NaN or Infinite, and the NAN keyword is
;                  set, then the corresponding data point is ignored
;                * if ERR is negative, then the absolute value of 
;                  ERR is used.
;
;   START_PARAMS - An array of starting values for each of the
;                  parameters of the model.  The number of parameters
;                  should be fewer than the number of measurements.
;                  Also, the parameters should have the same data type
;                  as the measurements (double is preferred).
;
;                  This parameter is optional if the PARINFO keyword
;                  is used (see MPFIT).  The PARINFO keyword provides
;                  a mechanism to fix or constrain individual
;                  parameters.  If both START_PARAMS and PARINFO are
;                  passed, then the starting *value* is taken from
;                  START_PARAMS, but the *constraints* are taken from
;                  PARINFO.
; 
;
; RETURNS:
;
;   Returns the array of best-fit parameters.
;
;
; KEYWORD PARAMETERS:
;
;   BESTNORM - the value of the summed squared residuals for the
;              returned parameter values.

;   ERRMSG - a string error or warning message is returned.
;
;   FTOL - a nonnegative input variable. Termination occurs when both
;          the actual and predicted relative reductions in the sum of
;          squares are at most FTOL (and STATUS is accordingly set to
;          1 or 3).  Therefore, FTOL measures the relative error
;          desired in the sum of squares.  Default: 1D-10
;
;   FUNCTARGS - A structure which contains the parameters to be passed
;               to the user-supplied function specified by MYFUNCT via
;               the _EXTRA mechanism.  This is the way you can pass
;               additional data to your user-supplied function without
;               using common blocks.
;
;               By default, no extra parameters are passed to the
;               user-supplied function.
;
;   GTOL - a nonnegative input variable. Termination occurs when the
;          cosine of the angle between fvec and any column of the
;          jacobian is at most GTOL in absolute value (and STATUS is
;          accordingly set to 4). Therefore, GTOL measures the
;          orthogonality desired between the function vector and the
;          columns of the jacobian.  Default: 1D-10
;
;   ITERARGS - The keyword arguments to be passed to ITERPROC via the
;              _EXTRA mechanism.  This should be a structure, and is
;              similar in operation to FUNCTARGS.
;              Default: no arguments are passed.
;
;   ITERPROC - The name of a procedure to be called upon each NPRINT
;              iteration of the MPFIT routine.  It should be declared
;              in the following way:
;
;              PRO ITERPROC, MYFUNCT, p, iter, fnorm, FUNCTARGS=fcnargs, $
;                PARINFO=parinfo, QUIET=quiet, ...
;                ; perform custom iteration update
;              END
;         
;              ITERPROC must either accept all three keyword
;              parameters (FUNCTARGS, PARINFO and QUIET), or at least
;              accept them via the _EXTRA keyword.
;          
;              MYFUNCT is the user-supplied function to be minimized,
;              P is the current set of model parameters, ITER is the
;              iteration number, and FUNCTARGS are the arguments to be
;              passed to MYFUNCT.  FNORM should be the
;              chi-squared value.  QUIET is set when no textual output
;              should be printed.  See below for documentation of
;              PARINFO.
;
;              In implementation, ITERPROC can perform updates to the
;              terminal or graphical user interface, to provide
;              feedback while the fit proceeds.  If the fit is to be
;              stopped for any reason, then ITERPROC should set the
;              common block variable ERROR_CODE to negative value (see
;              MPFIT_ERROR common block below).  In principle,
;              ITERPROC should probably not modify the parameter
;              values, because it may interfere with the algorithm's
;              stability.  In practice it is allowed.
;
;              Default: an internal routine is used to print the
;                       parameter values.
;
;   MAXITER - The maximum number of iterations to perform.  If the

;             number of calculation iterations exceeds MAXITER, then
;             the STATUS value is set to 5 and MPFIT returns.  
;
;             If MAXITER EQ 0, then MPFIT does not iterate to adjust
;             parameter values; however, the user function is evaluated
;             and parameter errors/covariance/Jacobian are estimated
;             before returning.

;   WEIGHTS - Array of weights to be used in calculating the
;             chi-squared value.  If WEIGHTS is specified then the ERR
;             parameter is ignored.  The chi-squared value is computed
;             as follows:
;
;                CHISQ = TOTAL( (Y-MYFUNCT(X,P))^2 * ABS(WEIGHTS) )
;
;             Here are common values of WEIGHTS for standard weightings:
;
;                1D/ERR^2 - Normal weighting (ERR is the measurement error)
;                1D/Y     - Poisson weighting (counting statistics)
;                1D       - Unweighted
;
;         NOTE: the following special cases apply:
;                * if WEIGHTS is zero, then the corresponding data point
;                  is ignored
;                * if WEIGHTS is NaN or Infinite, and the NAN keyword is
;                  set, then the corresponding data point is ignored
;                * if WEIGHTS is negative, then the absolute value of 
;                  WEIGHTS is used.
;
;   XTOL - a nonnegative input variable. Termination occurs when the
;          relative error between two consecutive iterates is at most
;          XTOL (and STATUS is accordingly set to 2 or 3).  Therefore,
;          XTOL measures the relative error desired in the approximate
;          solution.  Default: 1D-10
;
;   YFIT - the best-fit model function, as returned by MYFUNCT.
;
;   
; EXAMPLE:
;
;   ; First, generate some synthetic data
;   npts = 200
;   x  = dindgen(npts) * 0.1 - 10.                  ; Independent variable 
;   yi = gauss1(x, [2.2D, 1.4, 3000.])              ; "Ideal" Y variable
;   y  = yi + randomn(seed, npts) * sqrt(1000. + yi); Measured, w/ noise
;   sy = sqrt(1000.D + y)                           ; Poisson errors
;
;   ; Now fit a Gaussian to see how well we can recover
;   p0 = [1.D, 1., 1000.]                   ; Initial guess (cent, width, area)
;   p = mpfitfun('GAUSS1', x, y, sy, p0)    ; Fit a function
;   print, p
;
;   Generates a synthetic data set with a Gaussian peak, and Poisson
;   statistical uncertainty.  Then the same function is fitted to the
;   data (with different starting parameters) to see how close we can
;   get.
;
;
; COMMON BLOCKS:
;
;   COMMON MPFIT_ERROR, ERROR_CODE
;
;     User routines may stop the fitting process at any time by
;     setting an error condition.  This condition may be set in either
;     the user's model computation routine (MYFUNCT), or in the
;     iteration procedure (ITERPROC).
;
;     To stop the fitting, the above common block must be declared,
;     and ERROR_CODE must be set to a negative number.  After the user
;     procedure or function returns, MPFIT checks the value of this
;     common block variable and exits immediately if the error
;     condition has been set.  By default the value of ERROR_CODE is
;     zero, indicating a successful function/procedure call.
