A mixed spectral CD-DY conjugate descent method for solving unconstrained optimization problems is proposed, which combines the advantages of the spectral conjugate gradient method, the CD method, and the DY method. Under the Wolfe line search, the proposed method can generate a descent direction in each iteration, and the global convergence property can be also guaranteed. Numerical results show that the new method is efficient and stationary compared to the CD (Fletcher 1987) method, the DY (Dai and Yuan 1999) method, and the SFR (Du and Chen 2008) method; so it can be widely used in scientific computation.

This article presents a modified quadratic hybridization of the Polak–Ribiere–Polyak and Fletcher–Reeves conjugate gradient method for solving unconstrained optimization problems. Global convergence, with the strong Wolfe line search conditions, of the proposed quadratic hybrid conjugate gradient method is established. We also report some numerical results to show the competitiveness of the new hybrid method.

We propose a modified three-term conjugate gradient method with the Armijo line search for solving unconstrained optimization problems. The proposed method possesses the sufficient descent property. Under mild assumptions, the global convergence property of the proposed method with the Armijo line search is proved. Due to simplicity, low storage, and nice convergence properties, the proposed method is used to solve M-tensor systems and a kind of nonsmooth optimization problems with l1-norm. Finally, the given numerical experiments show the efficiency of the proposed method.

A modified spectral PRP conjugate gradient method is presented for solving unconstrained optimization problems. The constructed search direction is proved to be a sufficiently descent direction of the objective function. With an Armijo-type line search to determinate the step length, a new spectral PRP conjugate algorithm is developed. Under some mild conditions, the theory of global convergence is established. Numerical results demonstrate that this algorithm is promising, particularly, compared with the existing similar ones.

A modified PRP nonlinear conjugate gradient method to solve unconstrained optimization problems is proposed. The important property of the proposed method is that the sufficient descent property is guaranteed independent of any line search. By the use of the Wolfe line search, the global convergence of the proposed method is established for nonconvex minimization. Numerical results show that the proposed method is effective and promising by comparing with the VPRP, CG-DESCENT, and DL+methods.

A new nonlinear spectral conjugate descent method for solving unconstrained optimization problems is proposed on the basis of the CD method and the spectral conjugate gradient method. For any line search, the new method satisfies the sufficient descent conditiongkTdk<−∥gk∥2. Moreover, we prove that the new method is globally convergent under the strong Wolfe line search. The numerical results show that the new method is more effective for the given test problems from the CUTE test problem library (Bongartz et al., 1995) in contrast to the famous CD method, FR method, and PRP method.

Spectral conjugate gradient method (SCGM) is an important generalization of the conjugate gradient method (CGM), and it is also one of the effective numerical methods for large-scale unconstrained optimization. The designing for the spectral parameter and the conjugate parameter in SCGM is a core work. And the aim of this paper is to propose a new and effective alternative method for these two parameters. First, motivated by the strong Wolfe line search requirement, we design a new spectral parameter. Second, we propose a hybrid conjugate parameter. Such a way for yielding the two parameters can ensure that the search directions always possess descent property without depending on any line search rule. As a result, a new SCGM with the standard Wolfe line search is proposed. Under usual assumptions, the global convergence of the proposed SCGM is proved. Finally, by testing 108 test instances from 2 to 1,000,000 dimensions in the CUTE library and other classic test collections, a large number of numerical experiments, comparing with both SCGMs and CGMs, for the presented SCGM are executed. The detail results and their corresponding performance profiles are reported, which show that the proposed SCGM is effective and promising.

In this paper, an efficient modification of nonlinear conjugate gradient method and an associated implementation, based on an exact line search, are proposed and analyzed to solve large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. The method satisfies the sufficient descent property. Furthermore, global convergence result is proved. Computational results for a set of unconstrained optimization test problems, some of them from CUTE library, showed that this new conjugate gradient algorithm seems to converge more stable and outperforms the other similar methods in many situations.
