Nonlinear least square is one of the unconstrained optimization problems. In order to solve the least square trust region sub-problem, a genetic algorithm (GA) of global convergence was applied, and the premature convergence of genetic algorithms was also overcome through optimizing the search range of GA with trust region method (TRM), and the convergence rate of genetic algorithm was increased by the randomness of the genetic search. Finally, an example of banana function was established to verify the GA, and the results show the practicability and precision of this algorithm.

Wedge trust region method based on traditional trust region is designed for derivative free optimization problems. This method adds a constraint to the trust region problem, which is called “wedge method”. The problem is that the updating strategy of wedge trust region radius is somewhat simple. In this paper, we develop and combine a new radius updating rule with this method. For most test problems, the number of function evaluations is reduced significantly. The experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the improvement through our algorithm.

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.

AbstractFirst, we prove existence and comparison results for multi-valued elliptic variational inequalities involving Clarke’s generalized gradient of some locally Lipschitz functions as multi-valued term. Only by applying the definition of Clarke’s gradient it is well known that any solution of such a multi-valued elliptic variational inequality is also a solution of a corresponding variational-hemivariational inequality. The reverse is known to be true if the locally Lipschitz functions are regular in the sense of Clarke. Without imposing this kind of regularity the equivalence of the two problems under consideration is not clear at all. The main goal of this paper is to show that the equivalence still holds true without any additional regularity, which will fill a gap in the literature. Existence and comparison results for both multi-valued variational inequalities and variational-hemivariational inequalities are the main tools in the proof of the equivalence of these 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.
