…rom traditional RSA on what counts as signal. Also corrected the mismatch between documentation and actual implementation of the default optimizer. L-BFGS-B appears to require less memory and fits faster in each iteration than BFGS. But it is possible that more iterations are needed because Hessian is approximated, so the default max number of iteration is increased

This a good example for why we should not list defaults in docstrings: it creates the need to change values in an additional place, which is frequently forgotten, such as in this PR.
My recommendation: do not list the default in the docstring; it is already visible in the HTML docs in the function definition.

Is this the minimum number that works with L-BFGS-B? Just trying to minimize required time for tests.

@mihaic Yes! I will resubmit today :) |
…educed number of iteration in test code and increased that in brsa module.
add notes in the documentation for the different assumption in BRSA from traditional RSA on what counts as signal. Also corrected the mismatch between documentation and actual implementation of the default optimizer. L-BFGS-B appears to require less memory and fits faster in each iteration than BFGS. But it is possible that more iterations are needed because Hessian is approximated, so the default max number of iteration is increased
