In this paper, we propose a new dwindling multidimensional filter second-order line search method for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Usually, the multidimensional filter is constructed with a fixed envelope, which is a strict condition for the gradient vectors. A dwindling multidimensional filter technique, which is a modification and improvement of the original multidimensional filter, … Read more
Filter approach is recently proposed by Fletcher and Leyffer in 2002 and is attached importance to. In this paper, the filter approach is used in an sequential penalty quadratic programming (S$l$QP) algorithm which is similar to that of Yuan’s. In every trial step, the step length is controlled by a trust region radius. If the … Read more
Line search methods for nonlinear programming using Fletcher and Leyffer’s filter method, which replaces the traditional merit function, are proposed and their global and local convergence properties are analyzed. Previous theoretical work on filter methods has considered trust region algorithms and only the question of global convergence. The presented framework is applied to barrier interior … Read more
We consider minimizing a nonsmooth objective subject to nonsmooth constraints. The nonsmooth functions are approximated by a bundle of subgradients. The novel idea of a filter is used to promote global convergence.
