function [Factors,fit,it,FitStory,ConvCond,LmSt,JacSV,Grad] = GNParafac (X,F,Options,A,B,C);

Description:
Fits a PARAFAC model to a three way array using a Levenberg-Marquadt algorithm

Inputs:
X: array of doubles
F: number of factors to extract
Options (optional): see PAROptions
A,B,C: initial estimations for the loading matrices
 

Outputs:
Factors: cell vector with the estimations for the factors (each element contains a matrix with the loadings in the corresponding mode)

fit
: final value of the loss function

it
: number of iterations necessary to reach convergence

FitStory
: values of the loss functions along the iterations

ConvCond : set to 1 when a the convergence criteria is met

  1. ConvCond(1) relative decrease in fit
  2. ConvCond(2) relative change in parameters
  3. ConvCond(3) ratio between loss function and total sum of squares
  4. ConvCond(4) gradient infinity norm
  5. ConvCond(5) J'*J matrix is nearly singular in more than 5 consecutive iterations
  6. ConvCond(6) max number of iterations reached

LmSt: it contains the values of the Lambda damping parameter along with the iterations in the first column. The second column contain the "large" iteration number (i.e. the number of Jacobian estimations)

JackSV: singular values of the Jacobian (only for LM algorithm). See GNPARAFAC

Grad: gradient value upon convergence
