AbstractThis paper discusses an active set trust-region algorithm for bound-constrained optimization problems. A sufficient descent condition is used as a computational measure to identify whether the function value is reduced or not. To get our complexity result, a critical measure is used which is computationally better than the other known critical measures. Under the positive definiteness of approximated Hessian matrices restricted to the subspace of non-active variables, it will be shown that unlimited zigzagging cannot occur. It is shown that our algorithm is competitive in comparison with the state-of-the-art solvers for solving an ill-conditioned bound-constrained least-squares problem.

We present a nonmonotone trust region algorithm for nonlinear equality constrained optimization problems. In our algorithm, we use the average of the successive penalty function values to rectify the ratio of predicted reduction and the actual reduction. Compared with the existing nonmonotone trust region methods, our method is independent of the nonmonotone parameter. We establish the global convergence of the proposed algorithm and give the numerical tests to show the efficiency of the algorithm.

We propose a derivative-free trust region algorithm with a nonmonotone filter technique for bound constrained optimization. The derivative-free strategy is applied for special minimization functions in which derivatives are not all available. A nonmonotone filter technique ensures not only the trust region feature but also the global convergence under reasonable assumptions. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the new algorithm is effective for bound constrained optimization. Locally, optimal parameters with respect to overall computational time on a set of test problems are identified. The performance of the best choice of parameter values obtained by the algorithm we presented which differs from traditionally used values indicates that the algorithm proposed in this paper has a certain advantage for the nondifferentiable optimization problems.
