+An implementation of the Iterative Hessian Sketch solver for solving over determined 
+least squares problems (@cite)[pilanci2014iterative].
+
+# Mathematical Description
+Let ``A  \\in \\mathbb{R}^{m \\times n}`` and consider the least square problem ``\\min_x 
+\\|Ax - b \\|_2^2``. If we let ``S \\in \\mathbb{R}^{s \\times m}`` be a compression matrix, then 
+Iterative Hessian Sketch iteratively finds a solution to this problem
+by repeatedly updating ``x_{k+1} = x_k + \\alpha u_k``where ``u_k`` is the solution to the 
+convex optimization problem, 
+``u_k = \\min_u \\{\\|S_k Au\\|_2^2 - \\langle A, b - Ax_k \\rangle \\}.`` This method 
+has been to shown to converge geometrically at a rate ``\\rho \\in (0, 1/2]``, typically the 
+required compression dimension needs to be 4-8 times the size of n for the algorithm to 
+perform successfully.
+
