The method incorporates the modified BFGS secant equation in an effort to include the second order information of the objective function. The new secant equation has both gradient and function value information, and its update formula inherits the positive definiteness of Hessian approximation for general convex function. In order to improve the likelihood of finding a global optimal solution, we introduce a new modified nonmonotone line search technique. It is shown that, for nonsmooth convex problems, the proposed algorithm is globally convergent. Numerical results show that this new scaled conjugate gradient algorithm is promising and efficient for solving not only convex but also some large scale nonsmooth nonconvex problems in the sense of the Dolan-Moré performance profiles.展开更多

The conjugate gradient method is used to update the variables with indices outside of the active set, while the projected gradient method is used to update the active variables. At every iterative level, the search direction consists of two parts, one of which is a subspace trumcated Newton direction, another is a modified gradient direction. With the projected search the algorithm is suitable to large problems. The convergence of the method is proved and same numerical tests with dimensions ranging from 5000 to 20000 are given.展开更多

But the forward calculation of 3D full tensor sensitivity matrix is very time-consuming,which restricts its development and application.According to the symmetry of the kernel function,the authors reconstruct the underground source of geological body to avoid repeat computation of the same value,and work out the corresponding relationship between the response of geological body to the observation point and the response of reconstructed geological body to the observation point. According to the relationship,rapid calculation of full tensor gravity sensitivity matrix can be achieved. The model calculation shows that this method can increase the speed of 30-45 times compared with the traditional calculation method. The sensitivity matrix is applied to the multi-component inversion of gravity gradient. The application of this method on the measured data provides the basis for the promotion of the method.展开更多
