class NonLinRegression extends PredictorMat with NoFeatureSelectionMat

The NonLinRegression class supports non-linear regression. In this case, 'x' can be multi-dimensional '[1, x1, ... xk]' and the function 'f' is non-linear in the parameters 'b'. Fit the parameter vector 'b' in the regression equation

y = f(x, b) + e

where 'e' represents the residuals (the part not explained by the model). Use Least-Squares (minimizing the residuals) to fit the parameter vector 'b' by using Non-linear Programming to minimize Sum of Squares Error 'SSE'.

    Train a predictive model 'y_ = f(x_) + e' where 'x_' is the data/input matrix and 'y_' is the response/output vector. These arguments default to the full dataset 'x' and 'y', but may be restricted to a training dataset. Training involves estimating the model parameters 'b'. The 'train2' method should work like the 'train' method, but should also optimize hyper-parameters (e.g., shrinkage or learning rate). Only implementing classes needing this capability should implement this method.

    Compute the Variance Inflation Factor 'VIF' for each variable to test for multi-collinearity by regressing 'x_j' against the rest of the variables. A VIF over 10 indicates that over 90% of the variance of 'x_j' can be predicted from the other variables, so 'x_j' may be a candidate for removal from the model. Note: override this method to use a superior regression technique.
