/**
 * Implements the method of iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) which is used to solve
 * certain optimization problems by an iterative method. In each step of the iterations, it
 * involves solving a weighted least squares (WLS) problem by [[WeightedLeastSquares]].
 * It can be used to find maximum likelihood estimates of a generalized linear model (GLM),
 * find M-estimator in robust regression and other optimization problems.
 *
 * @param initialModel the initial guess model.
 * @param reweightFunc the reweight function which is used to update working labels and weights
 *                     at each iteration.
 * @param fitIntercept whether to fit intercept.
 * @param regParam L2 regularization parameter used by WLS.
 * @param maxIter maximum number of iterations.
 * @param tol the convergence tolerance.
 *
 * @see P. J. Green, Iteratively
 * Reweighted Least Squares for Maximum Likelihood Estimation, and some Robust
 * and Resistant Alternatives, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society.
