dc.description.abstractThe Levenberg-Marquardt method is a widely used algorithm applied to solve nonlinear least-squares problems. In this thesis, the Levenberg-Marquardt method is implemented in Python as a trust-region approach based on the works of Moré [Mor78] and Nocedal and Wright [NW06]. After a detailed description of the method, the Python code is presented. The Levenberg-Marquardt method is then tested on seven least-squares problems, including small-residual and large-residual problems as well as a poorly scaled one. In particular, the combination of large residuals and poor scaling makes the method slow, as it needs a large number of iterations to converge. Afterwards, the test results are compared to line search methods, such as the Gauss-Newton method. Regarding the test problems, the Levenberg-Marquardt method performed as the most robust algorithm.eng
