非线性规划中最小变化拟Newton方法的局部收敛性

考虑非线性规划问题:[1]和[4]曾讨论对某点x处的投影Hesse阵z(x)~T?_(xx)~2L(x,λ)z(x)进行变尺度校正算法的收敛性.假设f(x),c_i(x),i=1,…,t为二次连续可微函数,x~*为(1.1)的解,且在x~*处满足二阶充分性条件,以及假设     

A SELF-ADAPTIVE ALGORITHM FOR NONLINEAR LEAST SQUARES WITH LINEAR CONSTRAINTS

An algorithm for solving nonlinear least squares problems with general linear inequality constraints is described.At each step,the problem is reduced to an unconstrained linear least squares problem in a subs pace defined by the active constraints,which is solved using the quasi-Newton method.The major update formula is similar to the one given by Dennis,Gay and Welsch (1981).In this paper,we state the detailed implement of the algorithm,such as the choice of active set,the solution of subproblem and the avoidance of zigzagging.We also prove the globally convergent property of the algorithm.     

A NEW SECANT METHOD FOR NONLINEAR LEAST SQUARES PROBLEMS

This paper is concerned with the solution of the nonlinear least squares problems. A new secant method is suggested in this paper, which is based on an affine model of the objective function and updates the first-order approximation each step when the iterations proceed. We present an algorithm which combines the new secant method with Gauss-Newton method for general nonlinear least squares problems. Furthermore, we prove that this algorithm is Q-superlinearly convergent for large residual problems under mild conditions.
