无线搜索共轭梯度法的全局收敛性

In this paper, a new steplength formula is proposed for unconstrained optimization,which can determine the step-size only by one step and avoids the line search step. Global convergence of the five well-known conjugate gradient methods with this formula is analyzed,and the corresponding results are as follows:(1) The DY method globally converges for a strongly convex LC~1 objective function;(2) The CD method, the FR method, the PRP method and the LS method globally converge for a general, not necessarily convex, LC~1 objective function.     

Scaled conjugate gradient algorithms for unconstrained optimization

In this work we present and analyze a new scaled conjugate gradient algorithm and its implementation, based on an interpretation of the secant equation and on the inexact Wolfe line search conditions. The best spectral conjugate gradient algorithm SCG by Birgin and Martínez (2001), which is mainly a scaled variant of Perry’s (1977), is modified in such a manner to overcome the lack of positive definiteness of the matrix defining the search direction. This modification is based on the quasi-Newton BFGS updating formula. The computational scheme is embedded in the restart philosophy of Beale–Powell. The parameter scaling the gradient is selected as spectral gradient or in an anticipative manner by means of a formula using the function values in two successive points. In very mild conditions it is shown that, for strongly convex functions, the algorithm is global convergent. Preliminary computational results, for a set consisting of 500 unconstrained optimization test problems, show that this new scaled conjugate gradient algorithm substantially outperforms the spectral conjugate gradient SCG algorithm.

A descent hybrid conjugate gradient method based on the memoryless BFGS update

In this work, we present a new hybrid conjugate gradient method based on the approach of the convex hybridization of the conjugate gradient update parameters of DY and HS+, adapting a quasi-Newton philosophy. The computation of the hybrization parameter is obtained by minimizing the distance between the hybrid conjugate gradient direction and the self-scaling memoryless BFGS direction. Furthermore, a significant property of our proposed method is that it ensures sufficient descent independent of the accuracy of the line search. The global convergence of the proposed method is established provided that the line search satisfies the Wolfe conditions. Our numerical experiments on a set of unconstrained optimization test problems from the CUTEr collection indicate that our proposed method is preferable and in general superior to classic conjugate gradient methods in terms of efficiency and robustness.     

A Linear Hybridization of Dai-Yuan and Hestenes-Stiefel Conjugate Gradient Method for Unconstrained Optimization

Conjugate gradient methods are interesting iterative methods that solve large scale unconstrained optimization problems. A lot of recent research has thus focussed on developing a number of conjugate gradient methods that are more effective. In this paper, we propose another hybrid conjugate gradient method as a linear combination of Dai-Yuan (DY) method and the Hestenes-Stiefel (HS) method. The sufficient descent condition and the global convergence of this method are established using the generalized Wolfe line search conditions. Compared to the other conjugate gradient methods, the proposed method gives good numerical results and is effective.     

A scaled nonlinear conjugate gradient algorithm for unconstrained optimization

The best spectral conjugate gradient algorithm by (Birgin, E. and Martínez, J.M., 2001, A spectral conjugate gradient method for unconstrained optimization. Applied Mathematics and Optimization, 43, 117–128). which is mainly a scaled variant of (Perry, J.M., 1977, A class of Conjugate gradient algorithms with a two step varaiable metric memory, Discussion Paper 269, Center for Mathematical Studies in Economics and Management Science, Northwestern University), is modified in such a way as to overcome the lack of positive definiteness of the matrix defining the search direction. This modification is based on the quasi-Newton BFGS updating formula. The computational scheme is embedded into the restart philosophy of Beale–Powell. The parameter scaling the gradient is selected as spectral gradient or in an anticipative way by means of a formula using the function values in two successive points. In very mild conditions it is shown that, for strongly convex functions, the algorithm is global convergent. Computational results and performance profiles for a set consisting of 700 unconstrained optimization problems show that this new scaled nonlinear conjugate gradient algorithm substantially outperforms known conjugate gradient methods including: the spectral conjugate gradient SCG by Birgin and Martínez, the scaled Fletcher and Reeves, the Polak and Ribière algorithms and the CONMIN by (Shanno, D.F. and Phua, K.H., 1976, Algorithm 500, Minimization of unconstrained multivariate functions. ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, 2, 87–94).

NEW HYBRID CONJUGATE GRADIENT METHOD AS A CONVEX COMBINATION OF LS AND FR METHODS

In this paper, we present a new hybrid conjugate gradient algorithm for unconstrained optimization. This method is a convex combination of Liu-Storey conjugate gradient method and Fletcher-Reeves conjugate gradient method. We also prove that the search direction of any hybrid conjugate gradient method, which is a convex combination of two conjugate gradient methods, satisfies the famous D-L conjugacy condition and in the same time accords with the Newton direction with the suitable condition. Furthermore, this property doesn't depend on any line search. Next, we also prove that, moduling the value of the parameter t,the Newton direction condition is equivalent to Dai-Liao conjugacy condition.The strong Wolfe line search conditions are used.The global convergence of this new method is proved.Numerical comparisons show that the present hybrid conjugate gradient algorithm is the efficient one.
