Cubic Regularization Method based on Mixed Factorizations for Unconstrained Minimization
Newton’s method for unconstrained optimization, subject to proper regularization or special trust-region procedures, finds first-order stationary points with precision $\varepsilon$ employing, at most, $O(\varepsilon^{-3/2})$ functional and derivative evaluations. However, the computer work per iteration of the best-known implementations may need several factorizations per iteration or may use rather expensive matrix decompositions. In this paper, we … Read more
