Newton's Method for Large Bound-Constrained Optimization Problems

From MaRDI portal





The authors consider a trust region version of Newton's method for the optimization problem \(\min \{f(x): x \in \Omega\}\), \(\Omega=\{x \in R^n: l \leq x \leq u\}\). Given \(\eta_0>0\), the iterate \(x_k\) is updated by setting \(x_{k+1}=x_k +s_k\) if \(\rho_k=[f(x_k+s_k)-f(x_k)]/\psi_k (s_k) >\eta_0\) and \(x_{k+1}=x_k\) otherwise. The step \(s_k\) satisfies \(\psi(s_k) \leq \mu_0 \psi_k (s_k^C), \|s_k\|\leq \mu_1 \Delta_k, x_k +s_k \in \Omega\); \(\mu_0, \mu_1 >0\), \(\mu_0 <1/2\), where \(\psi_k (w)=\langle f'(x_k), w\rangle+ 1/2 \langle w, B_k w \rangle\) and \(B_k\) is a current approximation for the Hessian \(f(x_k)\). The algorithm is equipped with the rule for updating of the bound of the trust region \(\Delta_k\) at each iteration. The Cauchy step \(s_k^C=s_k (\alpha_k)\) is chosen subject to the constraints \(\psi_k (s_k (\alpha_k)) \leq \mu_0 \langle f'(x_k), s_k (\alpha_k)\rangle, \|s_k (\alpha_k)\|\leq \mu_1 \Delta_k\), where \(s_k (\alpha)= P[x_k-\alpha f'(x_k)]-x_k\) and \(P: R^n \to \Omega\) denotes the projection onto the feasible set \(\Omega\). A convergence theorem for uniformly bounded family \(\{ B_k\}\) and estimates for the rate of convergence for the case \(B_k=f(x_k)\) are established. The authors also present results of computational tests.
