Three adaptive hybrid derivative-free projection methods for constrained monotone nonlinear equations and their applications

In this work, by considering the hyperplane projection and hybrid techniques, three scaled three-term conjugate gradient methods are extended to solve the system of constrained monotone nonlinear equations, and the developed methods have the advantages of low storage and only using function values. The new methods satisfy the sufficient descent condition independent of any line search criterion. It has been proved that three new methods converge globally under some mild conditions. The numerical experiments for constrained monotone nonlinear equations and image de-blurring problems illustrate that the proposed methods are numerically effective and efficient.

Three-term conjugate gradient method for the convex optimization problem over the fixed point set of a nonexpansive mapping

Many constrained sets in problems such as signal processing and optimal control can be represented as a fixed point set of a certain nonexpansive mapping, and a number of iterative algorithms have been presented for solving a convex optimization problem over a fixed point set. This paper presents a novel gradient method with a three-term conjugate gradient direction that is used to accelerate conjugate gradient methods for solving unconstrained optimization problems. It is guaranteed that the algorithm strongly converges to the solution to the problem under the standard assumptions. Numerical comparisons with the existing gradient methods demonstrate the effectiveness and fast convergence of this algorithm.     

A gradient projection method for the sparse signal reconstruction in compressive sensing

Many problems arising from machine learning, compressive sensing, linear inverse problem, and statistical inference involve finding sparse solutions to under-determined or ill-conditioned equations. In this paper, a gradient projection method is proposed to recover sparse signal in compressive sensing by solving the nonlinear convex constrained equations. The global convergence is established with the backtracking line search. Preliminary numerical experiments coping with the sparse signal reconstruction in compressive sensing are performed, which show that the proposed method is very effective and stable.     

A globally convergent BFGS method for nonlinear monotone equations without any merit functions

Since 1965, there has been significant progress in the theoretical study on quasi-Newton methods for solving nonlinear equations, especially in the local convergence analysis. However, the study on global convergence of quasi-Newton methods is relatively fewer, especially for the BFGS method. To ensure global convergence, some merit function such as the squared norm merit function is typically used. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for solving nonlinear monotone equations, which combines the BFGS method and the hyperplane projection method. We also prove that the proposed BFGS method converges globally if the equation is monotone and Lipschitz continuous without differentiability requirement on the equation, which makes it possible to solve some nonsmooth equations. An attractive property of the proposed method is that its global convergence is independent of any merit function.We also report some numerical results to show efficiency of the proposed method.

     

Spectral DY-Type Projection Method for Nonlinear Monotone Systems of Equations

In this paper, we propose a spectral DY-type projection method for nonlinear monotone systems of equations, which is a reasonable combination of DY conjugate gradient method, the spectral gradient method and the projection technique. Without the differentiability assumption on the system of equations, we establish the global convergence of the proposed method, which does not rely on any merit function. Furthermore, this method is derivative-free and so is very suitable to solve large-scale nonlinear monotone systems. The preliminary numerical results show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.
