    The linear search problem was solved by Anatole Beck and Donald J. Newman (1970) as a two-person zero-sum game. Their minimax trajectory is to double the distance on each step and the optimal strategy is a mixture of trajectories that increase the distance by some fixed constant. [ 8 ]

    In optimization, line search is a basic iterative approach to find a local minimum of an objective function:. It first finds a descent direction along which the objective function f {\displaystyle f} will be reduced, and then computes a step size that determines how far x {\displaystyle \mathbf {x} } should move along that direction.
