The proposition of limited-memory BFGS method and Barzilai-Borwein gradient method, however, heavily restricted the use of conjugate gradient method for largescale nonlinear optimization. This is, to the great extent, due to the requirement of a relatively exact line search at each iteration and the loss of conjugacy property of the search directions in various occasions. On the contrary, the limited-memory BFGS method and the Barzilai-Bowein gradient method share the so-called asymptotical one stepsize per line-search property, namely, the trial stepsize in the method will asymptotically be accepted by the line search when the iteration is close to the solution. This paper will focus on the analysis of the subspace minimization conjugate gradient method by Yuan and Stoer(1995). Specifically, if choosing the parameter in the method by combining the Barzilai-Borwein idea, we will be able to provide some efficient Barzilai-Borwein conjugate gradient(BBCG) methods. The initial numerical experiments show that one of the variants, BBCG3, is specially efficient among many others without line searches. This variant of the BBCG method might enjoy the asymptotical one stepsize per line-search property and become a strong candidate for large-scale nonlinear optimization.展开更多
