/** \class VersorTransformOptimizer
 * \brief Implement a gradient descent optimizer
 *
 * VersorTransformOptimizer is a variant of the
 * gradient descent optimizer implmented in 
 * RegularStepGradientDescentOptimizer.
 *
 * Versors are not in a vector space, for that reason, 
 * the classical gradient descent algorithm has to be
 * modified in order to be applicable to Versors (unit
 * quaternions) that form the group SO(3).
 *
 * The Versor space has only three degrees of freedom,
 * even though Versors are represented using four values.
 *
 * This optimizer assumes that the CostFunction to be
 * optimized has an itk::Versor as parameter.
 * 
 * \sa RegularStepGradientDescentOptimizer
 * \sa Versor
 * \sa VersorTransform
