users can choose optimizers used in GP inference methods #2826

Closed yorkerlin closed 9 years ago

yorkerlin commented 9 years ago

The GP module for now uses lbfgs (first-order method) and newton method (second-order method). Indeed, many nonlinear optimizers (eg, Conjugate Gradient ) can be used in the module.

Make the GP inference framework more flexible so that users can choose a specific optimizer.

@karlnapf I will work on it at the end of this year.
