        User has to provide line-search method and optimization end criteria.
        Search direction \f$ d_i = - f'(x_i) + c_i*d_{i-1} \f$
        where \f$ c_i = ||f'(x_i)||^2/||f'(x_{i-1})||^2 \f$
        and \f$ d_1 = - f'(x_1) \f$
 
        This optimization method requires the knowledge of
        the gradient of the cost function.
