Ridge estimation iterative solution of ill-posed mixed additive and multiplicative random error model with equality constraints

The reasonable prior information between the parameters in the adjustment processing can significantly improve the precision of the parameter solution. Based on the principle of equality constraints, we establish the mixed additive and multiplicative random error model with equality constraints and derive the weighted least squares iterative solution of the model. In addition, aiming at the ill-posed problem of the coefficient matrix, we also propose the ridge estimation iterative solution of ill-posed mixed additive and multiplicative random error model with equality constraints based on the principle of ridge estimation method and derive the U-curve method to determine the ridge parameter. The experimental results show that the weighted least squares iterative solution can obtain more reasonable parameter estimation and precision information than existing solutions, verifying the feasibility of applying the equality constraints to the mixed additive and multiplicative random error model. Furthermore, the ridge estimation iterative solution can obtain more accurate parameter estimation and precision information than the weighted least squares iterative solution.

GLOBAL CONVERGENCE OF A TRUST REGION ALGORITHM USING INEXACT GRADIENT FOR EQUALITY-CONSTRAINED OPTIMIZATION

A trust-region algorithm is presented for a nonlinear optimization problem of equality-constraints. The characterization of the algorithm is using inexact gradient information. Global convergence results are demonstrated where the gradient values are obeyed a simple relative error condition.

An iterative algorithm of NWTLS-EC for three dimensional-datum transformation with large rotation angle

The Gauss-Markov （GM） model and the Errors-in-Variables （EIV） model are frequently used to perform 3D coordinate transformations in geodesy and engineering surveys. In these applications, because the observation errors in original coordinates system are also taken into account, the latter is more accurate and reasonable than the former. Although the Weighted Total Least Squares （WTLS） technique has been intro- duced into coordinate transformations as the measured points are heteroscedastic and correlated, the Variance- Covariance Matrix （VCM） of observations is restricted by a particular structure, namely, only the correlations of each points are taken into account. Because the 3D datum transformation with large rotation angle is a non- linear problem, the WTLS is no longer suitable in this ease. In this contribution, we suggested the nonlinear WTLS adjustments with equality constraints （NWTLS-EC） for 3D datum transformation with large rotation an- gle, which removed the particular structure restriction on the VCM. The Least Squares adjustment with Equality （LSE） constraints is employed to solve NWTLS-EC as the nonlinear model has been linearized, and an iterative algorithm is proposed with the LSE solution. A simulation study of 3D datum transformation with large rotation angle is given to insight into the feasibility of our algorithm at last.

A 2.79 COMPETITIVE ON-LINE ALGORITHM FOR TWO PROCESSOR REAL-TIME SYSTEMS WITH UNIFORM VALUE DENSITY

In this paper, a new superlinearly convergent algorithm is presented for optimization problems with general nonlinear equality and inequality constraints. Comparing with other methods for these problems, the algorithm has two main advantages. First, it doesn’t solve any quadratic programming (QP), and its search directions are determined by the generalized projection technique and the solutions of two systems of linear equations. Second, the sequential points generated by the algorithm satisfy all inequality constraints and its step length is computed by the straight line search. The algorithm is proved to possess global and superlinear convergence.

Method for solving fully fuzzy linear programming problems using deviation degree measure

A new fully fuzzy linear programming （FFLP） problem with fuzzy equality constraints is discussed. Using deviation degree measures, the FFLP problem is transformed into a crisp 6-parametric linear programming （LP） problem. Giving the value of deviation degree in each constraint, the 6-fuzzy optimal solution of the FFLP problem can be obtained by solving this LP problem. An algorithm is also proposed to find a balance-fuzzy optimal solution between two goals in conflict： to improve the values of the objective function and to decrease the values of the deviation degrees. A numerical example is solved to illustrate the proposed method.

COMPOSITE-STEP LIKE FILTER METHODS FOR EQUALITY CONSTRAINT PROBLEMS

In a composite-step approach, a step Sk is computed as the sum of two components Uk and hk. The normal component Vk, which is called the vertical step, aims to improve the linearized feasibility, while the tangential component hk, which is also called horizontal step, concentrates on reducing a model of the merit functions. As a filter method, it reduces both the infeasibility and the objective function. This is the same property of these two methods. In this paper, one concerns the composite-step like filter approach. That is, a step is tangential component hk if the infeasibility is reduced. Or else, Sk is a composite step composed of normal component Uk, and tangential component hk.

A GLOBALLY CONVERGENT TRUST REGION ALGORITHM FOR OPTIMIZATION WITH GENERAL CONSTRAINTS AND SIMPLE BOUNDS

In this paper, we introduce a concept of substationary points and present a new trust region-based method for the optimization problems with general nonlinear equality constraints and simple bounds. Without the linear independent assumption on the gradients of the equalitiy constraints, we prove the global convergence results for the main algorithm and indicate that they extend the results on SQP and those on trust region methods for equality constrained optimizstion and for optimization with simple bounds. Moreover, since any nonlinear programming problem can be converted into the standard nonlinear programming by introducing slack variables, the trust region method preseated in this paper can be used for solving general nonlinear programming problems.
