Title: Variable Projection Methods for Separable Nonlinear Least Squares Problems

Abstract: Curve fitting with a combination of nonlinear functions is an old problem. The variable projection method was introduced to solve such a problem. In this talk, we investigate the convergence of this method when applied to large systems of equations when using iterative methods to compute Jacobians matrices.
