+//
+// The data was obtained from
+// http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/strd/nls/nls_main.shtml, where more
+// background on these problems can also be found.
+//
+// Currently not all problems are solved successfully. Some of the
+// failures are due to convergence to a local minimum, and some fail
+// because of numerical issues.
+//
+// TODO(sameeragarwal): Fix numerical issues so that all the problems
+// converge and then look at convergence to the wrong solution issues.
