  2. Barzilai-Borwein method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barzilai-Borwein_method

    The Barzilai-Borwein method [1] is an iterative gradient descent method for unconstrained optimization using either of two step sizes derived from the linear trend of the most recent two iterates. This method, and modifications, are globally convergent under mild conditions, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] and perform competitively with conjugate gradient methods ...

  3. Adjoint state method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjoint_state_method

    If the operator was self-adjoint, =, the direct state equation and the adjoint state equation would have the same left-hand side. In the goal of never inverting a matrix, which is a very slow process numerically, a LU decomposition can be used instead to solve the state equation, in O ( m 3 ) {\displaystyle O(m^{3})} operations for the ...

    The Mediterranean countries are those that surround the Mediterranean Sea or located within the Mediterranean Basin. [1] Twenty sovereign countries in Southern Europe , Western Asia and North Africa regions border the sea itself, two island nations completely located in it ( Malta and Cyprus ), in addition to two British Overseas Territories ...

  5. Hadamard's method of descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hadamard's_method_of_descent

    In mathematics, the method of descent is the term coined by the French mathematician Jacques Hadamard as a method for solving a partial differential equation in several real or complex variables, by regarding it as the specialisation of an equation in more variables, constant in the extra parameters.

  6. Simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing

    For example, in the traveling salesman problem each state is typically defined as a permutation of the cities to be visited, and the neighbors of any state are the set of permutations produced by swapping any two of these cities. The well-defined way in which the states are altered to produce neighboring states is called a "move", and different ...

  7. Vieta jumping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vieta_jumping

    From the equation for H, one sees that 1 + x y ′ > 0. Since x > 0, it follows that y ′ ≥ 0. Hence the point (x, y ′) is in the first quadrant. By reflection, the point (y ′, x) is also a point in the first quadrant on H. Moreover from Vieta's formulas, yy ′ = x 2 - q, and y ′ = ⁠ x 2 - q / y ⁠. Combining this equation with x ...

  9. Method of steepest descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_steepest_descent

    In mathematics, the method of steepest descent or saddle-point method is an extension of Laplace's method for approximating an integral, where one deforms a contour integral in the complex plane to pass near a stationary point (saddle point), in roughly the direction of steepest descent or stationary phase. The saddle-point approximation is ...
