  2. Descent direction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descent_direction

    In optimization, a descent direction is a vector that points towards a local minimum of an objective function :.. Computing by an iterative method, such as line search defines a descent direction at the th iterate to be any such that , <, where , denotes the inner product.

  3. Barzilai-Borwein method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barzilai-Borwein_method

    The Barzilai-Borwein method [1] is an iterative gradient descent method for unconstrained optimization using either of two step sizes derived from the linear trend of the most recent two iterates. This method, and modifications, are globally convergent under mild conditions, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] and perform competitively with conjugate gradient methods ...

  4. Gradient descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient_descent

    The properties of gradient descent depend on the properties of the objective function and the variant of gradient descent used (for example, if a line search step is used). The assumptions made affect the convergence rate, and other properties, that can be proven for gradient descent. [33]

  5. Gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient_method

    In optimization, a gradient method is an algorithm to solve problems of the form with the search directions defined by the gradient of the function at the current point. Examples of gradient methods are the gradient descent and the conjugate gradient.

  6. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2). In mathematics, the conjugate gradient method is an algorithm for the numerical solution of particular systems of linear equations, namely those whose matrix is positive-semidefinite.

  7. LOBPCG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOBPCG

    Kantorovich in 1948 proposed calculating the smallest eigenvalue of a symmetric matrix by steepest descent using a direction = of a scaled gradient of a Rayleigh quotient = (,) / (,) in a scalar product (,) = ′, with the step size computed by minimizing the Rayleigh quotient in the linear span of the vectors and , i.e. in a locally optimal manner.

  8. Simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing

    For example, in the traveling salesman problem each state is typically defined as a permutation of the cities to be visited, and the neighbors of any state are the set of permutations produced by swapping any two of these cities. The well-defined way in which the states are altered to produce neighboring states is called a "move", and different ...

  9. Bregman method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bregman_method

    Since Linearized Bregman is mathematically equivalent to gradient descent, it can be accelerated with methods to accelerate gradient descent, such as line search, L-BGFS, Barzilai-Borwein steps, or the Nesterov method; the last has been proposed as the accelerated linearized Bregman method.
