Random perturbation of the variable metric method for unconstrained nonsmooth nonconvex optimization

Abdelkrim El Mouatasim, Rachid Ellaia, José Souza de Cursi (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

We consider the global optimization of a nonsmooth (nondifferentiable) nonconvex real function. We introduce a variable metric descent method adapted to nonsmooth situations, which is modified by the incorporation of suitable random perturbations. Convergence to a global minimum is established and a simple method for the generation of suitable perturbations is introduced. An algorithm is proposed and numerical results are presented, showing that the method is computationally effective...

Rescaled proximal methods for linearly constrained convex problems

Paulo J.S. Silva, Carlos Humes (2007)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

We present an inexact interior point proximal method to solve linearly constrained convex problems. In fact, we derive a primal-dual algorithm to solve the KKT conditions of the optimization problem using a modified version of the rescaled proximal method. We also present a pure primal method. The proposed proximal method has as distinctive feature the possibility of allowing inexact inner steps even for Linear Programming. This is achieved by using an error criterion that ...

Primal interior point method for minimization of generalized minimax functions

Ladislav Lukšan, Ctirad Matonoha, Jan Vlček (2010)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, we propose a primal interior-point method for large sparse generalized minimax optimization. After a short introduction, where the problem is stated, we introduce the basic equations of the Newton method applied to the KKT conditions and propose a primal interior-point method. (i. e. interior point method that uses explicitly computed approximations of Lagrange multipliers instead of their updates). Next we describe the basic algorithm and give more details concerning...

Global convergence property of modified Levenberg-Marquardt methods for nonsmooth equations

Shou-qiang Du, Yan Gao (2011)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, we discuss the globalization of some kind of modified Levenberg-Marquardt methods for nonsmooth equations and their applications to nonlinear complementarity problems. In these modified Levenberg-Marquardt methods, only an approximate solution of a linear system at each iteration is required. Under some mild assumptions, the global convergence is shown. Finally, numerical results show that the present methods are promising.

Convergence of prox-regularization methods for generalized fractional programming

Ahmed Roubi (2002)

RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle

Similarity:

We analyze the convergence of the prox-regularization algorithms introduced in [1], to solve generalized fractional programs, without assuming that the optimal solutions set of the considered problem is nonempty, and since the objective functions are variable with respect to the iterations in the auxiliary problems generated by Dinkelbach-type algorithms DT1 and DT2, we consider that the regularizing parameter is also variable. On the other hand we study the convergence when the iterates...
