parameterizedWeightEDDegree -- compute ED degrees of parameterized varieties

Description

This method computes Euclidean distance (ED) degrees for the variety parameterized by the a set of polynomials $F$ in $d$ variables. If the resulting variety is $d$-dimensional, then by finding a global description for the kernel of the transpose of the Jacobian map, the critical equations of the variety can be computed. The unit variant of this method computes an ED degree using random (integer) data and unit weights, whereas the generic variant will use random data and random weights.

i1 : R = QQ[x,y];
i2 : F = {x^2 + 1, x * y, y - 1};
i3 : (U,W) = ({12, 23, 25}, {15, 331, 1});
i4 : UED = parameterizedUnitEDDegree F

o4 = 7
i5 : GED = parameterizedGenericEDDegree F

o5 = 7
i6 : GED = parameterizedWeightEDDegree(F, U, W)

o6 = 7
