All Known Implementing Classes:

LeastSquaresAdapter
```
public interface LeastSquaresProblem
extends OptimizationProblem<LeastSquaresProblem.Evaluation>
```
The data necessary to define a non-linear least squares problem.
Includes the observed values, computed model function, and convergence/divergence criteria. Weights are implicit in LeastSquaresProblem.Evaluation.getResiduals() and LeastSquaresProblem.Evaluation.getJacobian().

Instances are typically either created progressively using a builder or created at once using a factory.
