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.

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.
