PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to employ stochastic techniques to increase efficiency of the classical algorithms for solving nonlinear optimization problems.Design/methodology/approachThe well-known simulated annealing strategy is employed to search successive neighborhoods of the classical trust region (TR) algorithm.FindingsAn adaptive formula for computing the TR radius is suggested based on an eigenvalue analysis conducted on the memoryless Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno updating formula. Also, a (heuristic) randomized adaptive TR algorithm is developed for solving unconstrained optimization problems. Results of computational experiments on a set of CUTEr test problems show that the proposed randomization scheme can enhance efficiency of the TR methods.Practical implicationsThe algorithm can be effectively used for solving the optimization problems which appear in engineering, economics, management, industry and other areas.Originality/valueThe proposed randomization scheme improves computational costs of the classical TR algorithm. Especially, the suggested algorithm avoids resolving the TR subproblems for many times.

A new self-adaptive rule of trust region radius is introduced, which is given by a piecewise function on the ratio between the actual and predicted reductions of the objective function. A self-adaptive trust region method for unconstrained optimization problems is presented. The convergence properties of the method are established under reasonable assumptions. Preliminary numerical results show that the new method is significant and robust for solving unconstrained optimization problems.

In this study, we propose a trust-region-based procedure to solve unconstrained optimization problems that take advantage of the nonmonotone technique to introduce an efficient adaptive radius strategy. In our approach, the adaptive technique leads to decreasing the total number of iterations, while utilizing the structure of nonmonotone formula helps us to handle large-scale problems. The new algorithm preserves the global convergence and has quadratic convergence under suitable conditions. Preliminary numerical experiments on standard test problems indicate the efficiency and robustness of the proposed approach for solving unconstrained optimization problems.

In this paper, we propose a new self-adaptive trust region method for unconstrained optimization problems and develop some convergence properties. In our algorithm, we use the previous and current iterative information to define a suitable trust region radius at each iteration. The global and superlinear convergence properties of the algorithm are established under reasonable assumptions. Preliminary numerical results show that the new method is efficient and attractive for solving unconstrained optimization problems.

We propose a nonmonotone adaptive trust region method for unconstrained optimization problems which combines a conic model and a new update rule for adjusting the trust region radius. Unlike the traditional adaptive trust region methods, the subproblem of the new method is the conic minimization subproblem. Moreover, at each iteration, we use the last and the current iterative information to define a suitable initial trust region radius. The global and superlinear convergence properties of the proposed method are established under reasonable conditions. Numerical results show that the new method is efficient and attractive for unconstrained optimization problems.

In this paper, a new nonmonotone adaptive trust region algorithm is proposed for unconstrained optimization by combining a multidimensional filter and the Goldstein-type line search technique. A modified trust region ratio is presented which results in more reasonable consistency between the accurate model and the approximate model. When a trial step is rejected, we use a multidimensional filter to increase the likelihood that the trial step is accepted. If the trial step is still not successful with the filter, a nonmonotone Goldstein-type line search is used in the direction of the rejected trial step. The approximation of the Hessian matrix is updated by the modified Quasi-Newton formula (CBFGS). Under appropriate conditions, the proposed algorithm is globally convergent and superlinearly convergent. The new algorithm shows better performance in terms of the Dolan–Moré performance profile. Numerical results demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of the proposed algorithm for solving unconstrained optimization problems.
