A computer-implemented system and method of non-linear modeling in a computer system having a limited precision processor is provided. A non-linear model is initialized by forming an objective function having one or more functional components and a marginal variance matrix.

The surrogate objective function and its gradient are then computed using the surrogate marginal variance matrix.
