    """
    Implement linear regression, with or without L2 regularization
    (the former is called Ridge Regression and the latter Ordinary Least Squares).

    Usage:

       linear_regressor=LinearRegression(L2_regularizer=0.1)
       linear_predictor=linear_regression(training_set)
       all_results_dataset=linear_predictor(test_set) # creates a dataset with "output" and "squared_error" field
       outputs = linear_predictor.compute_outputs(inputs) # inputs and outputs are numpy arrays
       outputs, errors = linear_predictor.compute_outputs_and_errors(inputs,targets)
       errors = linear_predictor.compute_errors(inputs,targets)
       mse = linear_predictor.compute_mse(inputs,targets)
       
       

    The training_set must have fields "input" and "target".
    The test_set must have field "input", and needs "target" if
    we want to compute the squared errors.

    The predictor parameters are obtained analytically from the training set.
    Training can proceed sequentially (with multiple calls to update with
    different disjoint subsets of the training sets). After each call to
    update the predictor is ready to be used (and optimized for the union
    of all the training sets passed to update since construction or since
    the last call to forget).

    For each (input[t],output[t]) pair in a minibatch,::
    
       output_t = b + W * input_t

    where b and W are obtained by minimizing::

       L2_regularizer sum_{ij} W_{ij}^2  + sum_t ||output_t - target_t||^2

    Let X be the whole training set inputs matrix (one input example per row),
    with the first column full of 1's, and Let Y the whole training set
    targets matrix (one example's target vector per row).
    Let theta = the matrix with b in its first column and W in the others,
    then each theta[:,i] is the solution of the linear system::

       XtX * theta[:,i] = XtY[:,i]

    where XtX is a (n_inputs+1)x(n_inputs+1) matrix containing X'*X
    plus L2_regularizer on the diagonal except at (0,0),
    and XtY is a (n_inputs+1)*n_outputs matrix containing X'*Y.

    The dataset fields expected and produced by the learning algorithm and the trained model
    are the following:

     - Input and output dataset fields (example-wise quantities):

       - 'input' (always expected as an input_dataset field)
       - 'target' (always expected by the learning algorithm, optional for learned model)
       - 'output' (always produced by learned model)
       - 'squared_error' (optionally produced by learned model if 'target' is provided)
          = example-wise squared error
