5 % We have converged if the slope of the log-likelihood function falls below 'threshold',
6 % i.e., |f(t) - f(t-1)| / avg < threshold,
7 % where avg = (|f(t)| + |f(t-1)|)/2 and f(t) is log lik at iteration t.
8 % 'threshold' defaults to 1e-4.
9 %
10 % This stopping criterion is from Numerical Recipes in C p423
11 %
12 % If we are doing MAP estimation (using priors), the likelihood can decrase,
13 % even though the mode of the posterior is increasing.
