r"""
Minimizes a differentiable function `func` using the BFGS method.
The BFGS is a quasi-Newton method for solving an unconstrained optimization problem over a differentiable function.
Closely related is the Newton method for minimization. Consider the iterate update formula:
.. math::
x_{k+1} = x_{k} + H_k \nabla{f_k}
If :math:`H_k` is the inverse Hessian of :math:`f` at :math:`x_k`, then it's the Newton method.
If :math:`H_k` is symmetric and positive definite, used as an approximation of the inverse Hessian, then
it's a quasi-Newton. In practice, the approximated Hessians are obtained
by only using the gradients, over either whole or part of the search
history, the former is BFGS, the latter is L-BFGS.
Reference:
Jorge Nocedal, Stephen J. Wright, Numerical Optimization, Second Edition, 2006. pp140: Algorithm 6.1 (BFGS Method).
Args:
objective_func: the objective function to minimize. ``objective_func`` accepts a 1D Tensor and returns a scalar.
initial_position (Tensor): the starting point of the iterates, has the same shape with the input of ``objective_func`` .
max_iters (int, optional): the maximum number of minimization iterations. Default value: 50.
tolerance_grad (float, optional): terminates if the gradient norm is smaller than this. Currently gradient norm uses inf norm. Default value: 1e-7.
tolerance_change (float, optional): terminates if the change of function value/position/parameter between two iterations is smaller than this value. Default value: 1e-9.
initial_inverse_hessian_estimate (Tensor, optional): the initial inverse hessian approximation at initial_position. It must be symmetric and positive definite. If not given, will use an identity matrix of order N, which is size of ``initial_position`` . Default value: None.
line_search_fn (str, optional): indicate which line search method to use, only support 'strong wolfe' right now. May support 'Hager Zhang' in the future. Default value: 'strong wolfe'.
max_line_search_iters (int, optional): the maximum number of line search iterations. Default value: 50.
initial_step_length (float, optional): step length used in first iteration of line search. different initial_step_length may cause different optimal result. For methods like Newton and quasi-Newton the initial trial step length should always be 1.0. Default value: 1.0.
dtype ('float32' | 'float64', optional): data type used in the algorithm, the data type of the input parameter must be consistent with the dtype. Default value: 'float32'.
name (str, optional): Name for the operation. For more information, please refer to :ref:`api_guide_Name`. Default value: None.
Returns:
output(tuple):
- is_converge (bool): Indicates whether found the minimum within tolerance.
- num_func_calls (int): number of objective function called.
- position (Tensor): the position of the last iteration. If the search converged, this value is the argmin of the objective function regarding to the initial position.
- objective_value (Tensor): objective function value at the `position`.
- objective_gradient (Tensor): objective function gradient at the `position`.
- inverse_hessian_estimate (Tensor): the estimate of inverse hessian at the `position`.

>>> # Initialize weight parameters
>>> w = paddle.normal(shape=(1,))
>>> # Call the bfgs method to solve the weight that makes the loss the smallest, and update the parameters
>>> for epoch in range(0, 10):
... # Call the bfgs method to optimize the loss, note that the third parameter returned represents the weight
... w_update = paddle.incubate.optimizer.functional.minimize_bfgs(loss, w)[2]
