/**
 * Classes to perform curve fitting.
 *
 * <p>Curve fitting is a special case of a least-squares problem where the parameters are the
 * coefficients of a function \( f \) whose graph \( y = f(x) \) should pass through sample points,
 * and were the objective function is the squared sum of the residuals \( f(x_i) - y_i \) for
 * observed points \( (x_i, y_i) \).
