A DERIVATIVE-FREE ALGORITHM FOR UNCONSTRAINED OPTIMIZATION

In this paper a hybrid algorithm which combines the pattern search method and the genetic algorithm for unconstrained optimization is presented. The algorithm is a deterministic pattern search algorithm,but in the search step of pattern search algorithm,the trial points are produced by a way like the genetic algorithm. At each iterate, by reduplication,crossover and mutation, a finite set of points can be used. In theory,the algorithm is globally convergent. The most stir is the numerical results showing that it can find the global minimizer for some problems ,which other pattern search algorithms don＇t bear.     

Descent methods for quasidifferentiable minimization

A descent method is given for minimizing a nondifferentiable function which can be locally approximated by pointwise minima of convex functions. At each iterate the algorithm finds several directions by solving several linear or quadratic programming subproblems. These directions are then used in an Armijo-like search for the next iterate. A feasible direction extension to inequality constrained minimization problems is also presented. The algorithms converge to points satisfying necessary optimality conditions which are sharper than the ones involved in convergence results for algorithms based on the Clarke subdifferential.This research was sponsored by Project 02.15.     

An interior multiobjective primal-dual linear programming algorithm using approximated gradients and sequential generation of anchor points

An algorithm for addressing multiple objective linear programming (MOLP) problems is presented. The algorithm modifies the path-following primal-dual algorithm to MOLP problems by using the single objective algorithm to generate interior search directions and later combine them to derive a single direction along which to step to the next iterate. Combining the different interior search directions is done by interacting with a Decision Maker (DM) to obtain locally-relevant preference information for the value vectors along these directions. This preference information is then used to derive an approximation to the gradient of an implicity-known utility function, and using a projection of this gradient provides a direction gradient of an implicitly-known utility function, and using a projection of this gradient provides a direction vector along which we step to the next iterate. At each iteration the algorithm also generates boundary points that aid in deriving the combined search direction. We refer to these boundary points, generated sequentially during the process, as anchor points that serve as candidate solutions at which to terminate the iterative process.     

A Filter-Based Pattern Search Method for Unconstrained Optimization

We discuss a filter-based pattern search method for unconstrained optimization in this paper. For the purpose to broaden the search range we use both filter technique and frames, which are fragments of grids, to provide a new criterion of iterate acceptance. The convergence can be ensured under some conditions. The numerical result shows that this method is practical and efficient.     

A Modified SQP Method with Nonmonotone Linesearch Technique

In this paper, a modified SQP method with nonmonotone line search technique is presented based on the modified quadratic subproblem proposed in Zhou (1997) and the nonmonotone line search technique. This algorithm starts from an arbitrary initial point, adjusts penalty parameter automatically and can overcome the Maratos effect. What is more, the subproblem is feasible at each iterate point. The global and local superlinear convergence properties are obtained under certain conditions.

Pattern Search Method for Discrete <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript>1</Subscript>–Approximation

We propose a pattern search method to solve a classical nonsmooth optimization problem. In a deep analogy with pattern search methods for linear constrained optimization, the set of search directions at each iteration is defined in such a way that it conforms to the local geometry of the set of points of nondifferentiability near the current iterate. This is crucial to ensure convergence. The approach presented here can be extended to wider classes of nonsmooth optimization problems. Numerical experiments seem to be encouraging. This work was supported by M.U.R.S.T., Rome, Italy.     

Strongly sub-feasible direction method for constrained optimization problems with nonsmooth objective functions

In this paper, we propose a strongly sub-feasible direction method for the solution of inequality constrained optimization problems whose objective functions are not necessarily differentiable. The algorithm combines the subgradient aggregation technique with the ideas of generalized cutting plane method and of strongly sub-feasible direction method, and as results a new search direction finding subproblem and a new line search strategy are presented. The algorithm can not only accept infeasible starting points but also preserve the “strong sub-feasibility” of the current iteration without unduly increasing the objective value. Moreover, once a feasible iterate occurs, it becomes automatically a feasible descent algorithm. Global convergence is proved, and some preliminary numerical results show that the proposed algorithm is efficient.     

An increasing‐angle property of the conjugate gradient method and the implementation of large‐scale minimization algorithms with line searches

The search direction in unconstrained minimization algorithms for large‐scale problems is usually computed as an iterate of the preconditioned) conjugate gradient method applied to the minimization of a local quadratic model. In line‐search procedures this direction is required to satisfy an angle condition that says that the angle between the negative gradient at the current point and the direction is bounded away from π/2. In this paper, it is shown that the angle between conjugate gradient iterates and the negative gradient strictly increases as far as the conjugate gradient algorithm proceeds. Therefore, the interruption of the conjugate gradient sub‐algorithm when the angle condition does not hold is theoretically justified. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
