Augmented Lagrangian Algorithms Based on the Spectral Projected Gradient Method for Solving Nonlinear Programming Problems

The spectral projected gradient method SPG is an algorithm for large-scale bound-constrained optimization introduced recently by Birgin, Martínez, and Raydan. It is based on the Raydan unconstrained generalization of the Barzilai-Borwein method for quadratics. The SPG algorithm turned out to be surprisingly effective for solving many large-scale minimization problems with box constraints. Therefore, it is natural to test its perfomance for solving the sub-problems that appear in nonlinear programming methods based on augmented Lagrangians. In this work, augmented Lagrangian methods which use SPG as the underlying convex-constraint solver are introduced (ALSPG) and the methods are tested in two sets of problems. First, a meaningful subset of large-scale nonlinearly constrained problems of the CUTE collection is solved and compared with the perfomance of LANCELOT. Second, a family of location problems in the minimax formulation is solved against the package FFSQP.     

Nonmonotone bundle-type scheme for convex nonsmooth minimization

In this paper, we present a general scheme for bundle-type algorithms which includes a nonmonotone line search procedure and for which global convergence can be proved. Some numerical examples are reported, showing that the nonmonotonicity can be beneficial from a computational point of view.This work was partially supported by the National Research Program on Metodi di ottimizzazione per le decisioni, Ministero dell' Universitá e della Ricerca Scientifica e Tecnologica and by ASI: Agenzia Spaziale Italiana.
