  *  List of optional parameters in "extra_params":

  *             - "max_iterations": Maximum number of iterations to run (default=50)
  *             - "robust_kernel": If !=0, use a robust kernel against outliers
  *(default=1)
  *             - "kernel_param": The pseudo-huber kernel parameter (default=3)
  *             - "mu": Initial mu for LevMarq (default=-1 -> autoguess)
  *             - "num_fix_frames": Number of first frame poses to don't optimize (keep
  *unmodified as they come in)  (default=1: the first pose is the reference and
  *is not modified)
  *             - "num_fix_points": Idem, for the landmarks positions (default=0:
  *optimize
  *all)
  *             - "profiler": If !=0, displays profiling information to the console at
  *return.
  *
  * \note In this function, all coordinates are absolute. Camera frames are such
  *that +Z points forward from the focal point (see the figure in
  *mrpt::obs::CObservationImage).
  * \note The first frame pose will be not updated since at least one frame must
  *remain fixed.
  *
  * \param observations [IN] All the feature observations (WITHOUT distortion),
  *indexed by feature ID as lists of <frame_ID, (x,y)>. See
  *TSequenceFeatureObservations.
  * \param camera_params [IN] The camera parameters, mainly used for the
  *intrinsic 3x3 matrix. Distortion params are ignored since it's assumed that
  *\a observations are already undistorted pixels.
  * \param frame_poses [IN/OUT] Input: Gross estimation of each frame poses.
  *Output: The found optimal solution.
  * \param landmark_points [IN/OUT] Input: Gross estimation of each landmark
  *point. Output: The found optimal solution.
  * \param extra_params [IN] Optional extra parameters. Read above.
  * \param user_feedback [IN] If provided, this functor will be called at each
  *iteration to provide a feedback to the user.
  *
  * \return The final overall squared error.
