stochastic derivative-free optimization

In many derivative-free optimization algorithms, a sufficient decrease condition decides whether to accept a trial step in each iteration. This condition typically requires that the potential objective function value decrease of the trial step, i.e., the true reduction in the objective function value that would be achieved by moving from the current point to the … Read more
