Re: [ceres-solver] Dependent residual blocks

Three residual blocks is cleaner.

Hello, 

Consider a minimization functional which is a sum of three "logical" blocks, with 2 independent variables x and y. 

||f(x)||^2 + ||g(y)||^2 + ||h(x, y)||^2

Function f is linear in x and depends on only x. 

Function g is linear in y and depends only on y. 

Function h is non-linear and depends on both x and y. 

For this case, would you break the problem into three residual blocks, or would you rather have only one residual block?
