// This fits points randomly distributed on an ellipse with an approximate
// line segment contour. This is done by jointly optimizing the control points
// of the line segment contour along with the preimage positions for the data
// points. The purpose of this example is to show an example use case for
// dynamic_sparsity, and how it can benefit problems which are numerically
// dense but dynamically sparse.
