In this paper, we propose a simulated annealing-based Barzilai–Borwein (SABB) gradient method for unconstrained optimization problems. The SABB method accepts the Barzilai–Borwein (BB) step by a simulated annealing rule. If the BB step cannot be accepted, the Armijo line search is used. The global convergence of the SABB method is established under some mild conditions. Numerical experiments indicate that, compared to some existing BB methods using nonmonotone line search technique, the SABB method performs well with high efficiency.

The Barzilai and Borwein gradient algorithm has received a great deal of attention in recent decades since it is simple and effective for smooth optimization problems. Whether can it be extended to solve nonsmooth problems? In this paper, we answer this question positively. The Barzilai and Borwein gradient algorithm combined with a nonmonotone line search technique is proposed for nonsmooth convex minimization. The global convergence of the given algorithm is established under suitable conditions. Numerical results show that this method is efficient.
