An implementation of the steepest descent method using retractions on riemannian manifolds
In 2008 Absil et al. published a book with optimization methods in Riemannian manifolds. The authors developed steepest descent, Newton, trust-region and conjugate gradients methods using an approximation of the geodesic called retraction. In this paper we present implementations of the of steepest descent method of Absil et al. using Matlab software. We show the … Read more
