// This autodiff implementation differs from the one found in
// autodiff_cost_function.h by supporting autodiff on cost functions
// with variable numbers of parameters with variable sizes. With the
// other implementation, all the sizes (both the number of parameter
// blocks and the size of each block) must be fixed at compile time.
//
// The functor API differs slightly from the API for fixed size
// autodiff; the expected interface for the cost functors is:
//
//   struct MyCostFunctor {
//     template<typename T>
//     bool operator()(T const* const* parameters, T* residuals) const {
//       // Use parameters[i] to access the i'th parameter block.
//     }
//   };
//
// Since the sizing of the parameters is done at runtime, you must
// also specify the sizes after creating the dynamic autodiff cost
// function. For example:
//
//   DynamicAutoDiffCostFunction<MyCostFunctor, 3> cost_function(
//       new MyCostFunctor());
//   cost_function.AddParameterBlock(5);
//   cost_function.AddParameterBlock(10);
//   cost_function.SetNumResiduals(21);
//
// Under the hood, the implementation evaluates the cost function
// multiple times, computing a small set of the derivatives (four by
// default, controlled by the Stride template parameter) with each
// pass. There is a tradeoff with the size of the passes; you may want
// to experiment with the stride.
