The Optimization Cost vs. Iteration Plot
The plot below shows the decrease in the cost function as the optimizer changes the design to minimize the error. Note that the ordinate is plotted on a log scale to show the lower values. The optimizer required 17 iterations. The initial error in the RMS2 metric was64.707. At convergence the RMS2 error was 3.11e-03.
