  2. Quasi-Newton method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasi-Newton_method

    Other methods that can be used are the column-updating method, the inverse column-updating method, the quasi-Newton least squares method and the quasi-Newton inverse least squares method. More recently quasi-Newton methods have been applied to find the solution of multiple coupled systems of equations (e.g. fluid–structure interaction ...

  3. Newton's method in optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method_in...

    Newton's method, in its original version, has several caveats: It does not work if the Hessian is not invertible. This is clear from the very definition of Newton's method, which requires taking the inverse of the Hessian. It may not converge at all, but can enter a cycle having more than 1 point. See the Newton's method § Failure analysis.

  4. Davidon–Fletcher–Powell formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davidon–Fletcher–Powell...

    It was the first quasi-Newton method to generalize the secant method to a multidimensional problem. This update maintains the symmetry and positive definiteness of the Hessian matrix . Given a function f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} , its gradient ( ∇ f {\displaystyle \nabla f} ), and positive-definite Hessian matrix B {\displaystyle B} , the ...

  5. Preconditioner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preconditioner

    In mathematics, preconditioning is the application of a transformation, called the preconditioner, that conditions a given problem into a form that is more suitable for numerical solving methods. Preconditioning is typically related to reducing a condition number of the problem.

  6. Broyden's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broyden's_method

    In numerical analysis, Broyden's method is a quasi-Newton method for finding roots in k variables. It was originally described by C. G. Broyden in 1965. [1]Newton's method for solving f(x) = 0 uses the Jacobian matrix, J, at every iteration.

    None of these requires second derivatives. Gauss-Newton, however, requires an overdetermined system. The exact relations are not stated in this article. It would be helpful to show different assumptions or what the algorithms do have in common with quasi-Newton-methods.

  8. Compact quasi-Newton representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_quasi-Newton...

    The compact representation for quasi-Newton methods is a matrix decomposition, which is typically used in gradient based optimization algorithms or for solving nonlinear systems. The decomposition uses a low-rank representation for the direct and/or inverse Hessian or the Jacobian of a nonlinear system.

  9. Limited-memory BFGS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limited-memory_BFGS

    Limited-memory BFGS (L-BFGS or LM-BFGS) is an optimization algorithm in the family of quasi-Newton methods that approximates the Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno algorithm (BFGS) using a limited amount of computer memory. [1] It is a popular algorithm for parameter estimation in machine learning.
