Conjugate gradient methods form a class of iterative algorithms that are highly effective for solving large‐scale unconstrained optimisation problems. They achieve efficiency by constructing search ...
In this paper we test different conjugate gradient (CG) methods for solving largescale unconstrained optimization problems. The methods are divided in two groups: the first group includes five basic ...
No algorithm for optimizing general nonlinear functions exists that will always find the global optimum for a general nonlinear minimization problem in a reasonable amount of time. Since no single ...
