/**
* @file    SolverComparer.cpp
* @brief   Incremental and batch solving, timing, and accuracy comparisons
* @author  Richard Roberts
* @date    August, 2013
*
* Here is an example. Below, to run in batch mode, we first generate an initialization in incremental mode.
*
* Solve in incremental and write to file w_inc:
* ./SolverComparer --incremental -d w10000 -o w_inc
*
* You can then perturb that initialization to get batch something to optimize.
* Read in w_inc, perturb it with noise of stddev 0.6, and write to w_pert:
* ./SolverComparer --perturb 0.6 -i w_inc -o w_pert
*
* Then optimize with batch, read in w_pert, solve in batch, and write to w_batch:
* ./SolverComparer --batch -d w10000 -i w_pert -o w_batch
*
* And finally compare solutions in w_inc and w_batch to check that batch converged to the global minimum
* ./SolverComparer --compare w_inc w_batch
*
