Flux optimization #48

Closed bd-j closed 3 years ago

bd-j commented 3 years ago

It's possible to analytically optimize the flux values, conditional on the shapes and positions, via simple linear regression. This can/should be done for scenes before any sampling.

Linear flux optimization methods, as well as a BFGS based optimization method, have been added to the fitting module.
