A favorite property of this method is that we can choose the initial stepsize as the one-dimensional minimizer of a quadratic modelΦ(t):= f(xk)+tgkTdk+(1/2) t2dkTQkdk, where Qk is a positive definite matrix that carries some second order information of the objective function f. So, this line search may make the stepsize tk more easily accepted. Preliminary numerical results show that this method is efficient.展开更多

In this paper a new line search method is proposed for solving unconstrained optimization. Under weak conditions, this method possesses global convergence and R-linear convergence for nonconvex function and convex function, respectively. Moreover, the given search direction has sufficiently descent property and belongs to a trust region without carrying out any line search rule. Numerical results show that the new method is effective.展开更多
