// Computation of the Jacobian matrix for vector-valued functions of multiple
// variables, using automatic differentiation based on the implementation of
// dual numbers in jet.h. Before reading the rest of this file, it is adivsable
// to read jet.h's header comment in detail.
//
// The helper wrapper AutoDiff::Differentiate() computes the jacobian of
// functors with templated operator() taking this form:
//
// struct F {
// template<typename T>
// bool operator(const T *x, const T *y, ..., T *z) {
// // Compute z[] based on x[], y[], ...
// // return true if computation succeeded, false otherwise.
// }
// };
//
// All inputs and outputs may be vector-valued.
//
// To understand how jets are used to compute the jacobian, a
// picture may help. Consider a vector-valued function, F, returning 3
// dimensions and taking a vector-valued parameter of 4 dimensions:
//
// y x
// [ * ] F [ * ]
// [ * ] <--- [ * ]
// [ * ] [ * ]
// [ * ]
//
// Similar to the 2-parameter example for f described in jet.h, computing the
// jacobian dy/dx is done by substutiting a suitable jet object for x and all
// intermediate steps of the computation of F. Since x is has 4 dimensions, use
// a Jet<double, 4>.
//
// Before substituting a jet object for x, the dual components are set
// appropriately for each dimension of x:
//
// y x
// [ * | * * * * ] f [ * | 1 0 0 0 ] x0
// [ * | * * * * ] <--- [ * | 0 1 0 0 ] x1
// [ * | * * * * ] [ * | 0 0 1 0 ] x2
// ---+--- [ * | 0 0 0 1 ] x3
// | ^ ^ ^ ^
// dy/dx | | | +----- infinitesimal for x3
// | | +------- infinitesimal for x2
// | +--------- infinitesimal for x1
// +----------- infinitesimal for x0
//
// The reason to set the internal 4x4 submatrix to the identity is that we wish
// to take the derivative of y separately with respect to each dimension of x.
// Each column of the 4x4 identity is therefore for a single component of the
// independent variable x.
//
// Then the jacobian of the mapping, dy/dx, is the 3x4 sub-matrix of the
// extended y vector, indicated in the above diagram.
//
// Functors with multiple parameters
// ---------------------------------
// In practice, it is often convenient to use a function f of two or more
// vector-valued parameters, for example, x[3] and z[6]. Unfortunately, the jet
// framework is designed for a single-parameter vector-valued input. The wrapper
// in this file addresses this issue adding support for functions with one or
// more parameter vectors.
//
// To support multiple parameters, all the parameter vectors are concatenated
// into one and treated as a single parameter vector, except that since the
// functor expects different inputs, we need to construct the jets as if they
// were part of a single parameter vector. The extended jets are passed
// separately for each parameter.
//
// For example, consider a functor F taking two vector parameters, p[2] and
// q[3], and producing an output y[4]:
//
// struct F {
// template<typename T>
// bool operator(const T *p, const T *q, T *z) {
// // ...
// }
// };
//
// In this case, the necessary jet type is Jet<double, 5>. Here is a
// visualization of the jet objects in this case:
//
// Dual components for p ----+
// |
// -+-
// y [ * | 1 0 | 0 0 0 ] --- p[0]
// [ * | 0 1 | 0 0 0 ] --- p[1]
// [ * | . . | + + + ] |
// [ * | . . | + + + ] v
// [ * | . . | + + + ] <--- F(p, q)
// [ * | . . | + + + ] ^
// ^^^ ^^^^^ |
// dy/dp dy/dq [ * | 0 0 | 1 0 0 ] --- q[0]
// [ * | 0 0 | 0 1 0 ] --- q[1]
// [ * | 0 0 | 0 0 1 ] --- q[2]
// --+--
// |
// Dual components for q --------------+
//
// where the 4x2 submatrix (marked with ".") and 4x3 submatrix (marked with "+"
// of y in the above diagram are the derivatives of y with respect to p and q
// respectively. This is how autodiff works for functors taking multiple vector
// valued arguments (up to 6).
//
// Jacobian NULL pointers
// ----------------------
// In general, the functions below will accept NULL pointers for all or some of
// the Jacobian parameters, meaning that those Jacobians will not be computed.
