It combines a modified self-scaled symmetric rank one （SSR1） update with the limited memory and nonmonotone line search technique. In this algorithm, the descent search direction is generated by inverse limited memory SSR1 update, thus simplifying the computation. Numerical comparison of the algorithm and the famous limited memory BFGS algorithm is given. Comparison results indicate that the new algorithm can process a kind of large-scale unconstrained optimization problems.展开更多

The applications in computed tomography (CT) perform well in image reconstruction. The reweighted schemes were applied in l1-norm and total variation minimization for signal and image recovery to improve the convergence of algorithms. In this paper, we present a reweighted total variation algorithm using the alternating direction method (ADM) for image reconstruction in CT. The numerical experiments for ADM demonstrate that adding reweighted strategy reduces the computation time effectively and improves the quality of reconstructed images as well.展开更多

The main idea of this paper is to combine Yuan's technique[1] with a nonmonotone method similar to Ke and Han [2]. This new algorithm may not only keep the robust properties of the algorithm given by Yuan, but also have some advantages led by the nonmonotone technique. Under very mild conditions, global convergence for the algorithm is given. Numerical experiments demonstrate the efficiency of the algorithm.展开更多

The new algorithm does not have to solve the second order correction subproblems for each iterations, but still can circumvent the so-called Maratos effect. The algorithm's global convergence and superlinear convergent rate have been proved. In addition, we can prove that, after a few iterations, correction subproblems need not be solved, so computation amount of the algorithm will be decreased much more. Numerical experiments show that the new algorithm is effective.展开更多

To begin with, the generalized flexibility matrix (GFM) proposed to solve the damage identification problem is recalled and a modal expansion method is introduced. Next, the objective function for iterative optimization process based on the GFM is formulated, and the Trust-Region algorithm is utilized to obtain the solution of the optimization problem for multiple damage cases. And then for computing the objective function gradient, the sensitivity analysis regarding design variables is derived. In addition, due to the spatial incompleteness, the influence of stiffness reduction and incomplete modal measurement data is discussed by means of two numerical examples with several damage cases. Finally, based on the computational results, it is evident that the presented approach provides good validity and reliability for the large and complicated engineering structures.展开更多
