58// <synopsis>
59// The GaussianMultipletSpectralElement class describes a multiplet
60// of Gaussian shaped spectral lines for describing spectral profile.
61//
62// Relationships between Gaussians in the multiplet must be specified.
63// Any combination of one or more of fixed relationships between line
64// center offsets, line amplitude ratios, and/or line width ratios can
65// be specified between a single reference line in the multiplet and
66// other (non-reference) lines in the multiplet. The constructor
67// takes a Vector of GaussianSpectralElements which describes the estimates
68// of the n Gaussians in the multiplet. These objects themselves are not
69// used in the fitting, but are used only to create the function that describes
70// the multiplet. The first element in this Vector represents the reference line
71// to which parameters of the other lines are constrained. In addition, the
72// constructor takes an n-1 x 3 Matrix<Double> describing the fixed relationships
73// between the reference line and the other lines in the multiplet. Each ith row
74// describes the fixed relationship(s) between the (i+1)th and the zeroth
75// (reference) Gaussian. The first element of each row describes the ratio of
76// amplitudes between the (i+1)th and reference Gaussian, the second element
77// describes the difference between the center locations of the (i+1)th and
78// reference Gaussian, and the third represents the ratio of the FWHM of the
79// (i+1)th and reference Gaussian. A value of 0 for any of these indicates there
80// is no fixed relationship for that parameter. At least one value must be non-zero
81// for each row and any combination of elements (including all of them) can be
82// non-zero for any row in this matrix. The values of parameters of non-reference
83// lines in the input vector that are constrained to the reference line are
84// implicitly ignored and set in the constructor according to the specified
85// constraint. If any of the parameters of the reference line are specified as
86// fixed, the corresponding parameters of any non-reference lines which have the
87// corresponding parameters constrained to the reference line are also implicitly
88// fixed. Fixing a parameter in a non-reference line that is constrained to the
89// corresponding parameter of the reference line that is not fixed will cause an
90// exception.
91// </synopsis>
92//
93// <example>
94// This is how to specify a doublet in which the only constraint is that the amplitudes
95// between the lines must be fixed, the first Gaussian must have an ampliute of 0.6 times
96// the zeroth (reference) Gaussian. Other than that, all other parameters can
97// vary during the fit:
98
99// GaussianSpectralElement reference(5, 25, 16);
100// // The amplitude value of first is ignored because of the relationship to the
101// // reference, but it still must be specified in the constructor and must be
102// // non-zero or an exception will be thrown.
103// GaussianSpectralElement first(1, 40, 17);
104// Vector<GaussianSpectralElement> pair(2);
105// pair[0] = reference;
106// pair[1] = first;
107// // initialize constraints matrix to have nothing constrained (all values 0)
108// Matrix<Double> fixedRel(1, 3, 0);
109// // Set the ratio of amplitudes between the first and reference (zeroth) line
110// // to be 0.6.
111// fixedRel[0][0] = 0.6
112// GaussianMultipletSpectralElement doublet(pair,"",fixedRel);
113// </example>
114//
115// <motivation>
116// To allow specifying constraints between different Gaussian spectral
117// lines for fitting, eg to support fitting of doublets.
