Some problems have no analytical solution or too difficult to solve by scientists, engineers, and mathematicians, so the development of numerical methods to obtain approximate solutions became necessary. Gradient methods are more efficient when the function to be minimized continuously in its first derivative. Therefore, this article presents a new hybrid Conjugate Gradient (CG) method to solve unconstrained optimization problems. The method requires the first-order derivatives but overcomes the steepest descent method’s shortcoming of slow convergence and needs not to save or compute the second-order derivatives needed by the Newton method. The CG update parameter is suggested from the Dai-Liao conjugacy condition as a convex combination of Hestenes-Stiefel and Fletcher-Revees algorithms by employing an optimal modulating choice parameterto avoid matrix storage. Numerical computation adopts an inexact line search to obtain the step-size that generates a decent property, showing that the algorithm is robust and efficient. The scheme converges globally under Wolfe line search, and it’s like is suitable in compressive sensing problems and M-tensor systems.

In this paper, we are concerned with the conjugate gradient methods for solving unconstrained optimization problems. we propose a modified Fletcher–Reeves (abbreviated FR) [Function minimization by conjugate gradients, Comput. J. 7 (1964) 149–154] conjugate gradient algorithm satisfying a parametrized sufficient descent condition with a parameter [Formula: see text] is proposed. The parameter [Formula: see text] is computed by means of the conjugacy condition, thus an algorithm which is a positive multiplicative modification of the Hestenes and Stiefel (abbreviated HS) [Methods of conjugate gradients for solving linear systems, J. Res. Nat. Bur. Standards Sec. B 48 (1952) 409–436] algorithm is obtained, which produces a descent search direction at every iteration that the line search satisfies the Wolfe conditions. Under appropriate conditions, we show that the modified FR method with the strong Wolfe line search is globally convergent of uniformly convex functions. We also present extensive preliminary numerical experiments to show the efficiency of the proposed method.

Term Type

Two modified three-term type conjugate gradient algorithms which satisfy both the descent condition and the Dai-Liao type conjugacy condition are presented for unconstrained optimization. The first algorithm is a modification of the Hager and Zhang type algorithm in such a way that the search direction is descent and satisfies Dai-Liao’s type conjugacy condition. The second simple three-term type conjugate gradient method can generate sufficient decent directions at every iteration; moreover, this property is independent of the steplength line search. Also, the algorithms could be considered as a modification of the MBFGS method, but with differentzk. Under some mild conditions, the given methods are global convergence, which is independent of the Wolfe line search for general functions. The numerical experiments show that the proposed methods are very robust and efficient.

Abstract In this paper, based on the efficient Conjugate Descent (CD) method, two generalized CD algorithms are proposed to solve the unconstrained optimization problems. These methods are three-term conjugate gradient methods which the generated directions by using the conjugate gradient parameters and independent of the line search satisfy in the sufficient descent condition. Furthermore, under the strong Wolfe line search, the global convergence of the proposed methods are proved. Also, the preliminary numerical results on the CUTEst collection are presented to show effectiveness of our methods.

Large Scale Unconstrained Optimization

We present a new spectral conjugate gradient method based on the Dai-Yuan strategy to solve large-scale unconstrained optimization problems with applications to compressive sensing. In our method, the numerator of conjugate gradient parameter is a convex combination from the maximum gradient norm value in some preceding iterates and the current gradient norm value. This combination will try to produce the larger step-size far away from the optimizer and the smaller step-size close to it. In addition, the spectral parameter guarantees the descent property of the new generated direction in each iterate. The global convergence results are established under some standard assumptions. Numerical results are reported which indicate the promising behavior of the new procedure to solve large-scale unconstrained optimization and compressive sensing problems.

In this paper, a new formula of 𝛽𝑘 is suggested for the conjugate gradient method of solving unconstrained optimization problems based on three terms and step size of cubic. Our new proposed CG method has descent condition, sufficient descent condition, conjugacy condition, and global convergence properties. Numerical comparisons with two standard conjugate gradient algorithms show that this algorithm is very effective depending on the number of iterations and the number of functions evaluated.

Hybrid Conjugate Gradient Method

One of todays’ best-performing CG methods is Dai-Liao (DL) method which depends on non-negative parameter  and conjugacy conditions for its computation. Although numerous optimal selections for the parameter were suggested, the best choice of  remains a subject of consideration. The pure conjugacy condition adopts an exact line search for numerical experiments and convergence analysis. Though, a practical mathematical experiment implies using an inexact line search to find the step size. To avoid such drawbacks, Dai and Liao substituted the earlier conjugacy condition with an extended conjugacy condition. Therefore, this paper suggests a new hybrid CG that combines the strength of Liu and Storey and Conjugate Descent CG methods by retaining a choice of Dai-Liao parameterthat is optimal. The theoretical analysis indicated that the search direction of the new CG scheme is descent and satisfies sufficient descent condition when the iterates jam under strong Wolfe line search. The algorithm is shown to converge globally using standard assumptions. The numerical experimentation of the scheme demonstrated that the proposed method is robust and promising than some known methods applying the performance profile Dolan and Mor´e on 250 unrestricted problems.  Numerical assessment of the tested CG algorithms with sparse signal reconstruction and image restoration in compressive sensing problems, file restoration, image video coding and other applications. The result shows that these CG schemes are comparable and can be applied in different fields such as temperature, fire, seismic sensors, and humidity detectors in forests, using wireless sensor network techniques.
