An inertial forward–backward algorithm for the minimization of the sum of two nonconvex functions

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2016
We propose a forward–backward proximal-type algorithm with inertial/memory effects for minimizing the sum of a nonsmooth function with a smooth one in the nonconvex setting.

Modified nonlinear conjugate gradient method with sufficient descent condition for unconstrained optimization

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2011
In this paper, an efficient modified nonlinear conjugate gradient method for solving unconstrained optimization problems is proposed. An attractive property of the modified method is that the generated direction in each step is always descending without ...

Consensus-based optimisation with truncated noise

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Applied Mathematics
Consensus-based optimisation (CBO) is a versatile multi-particle metaheuristic optimisation method suitable for performing non-convex and non-smooth global optimisations in high dimensions.

Nonsmooth spectral gradient methods for unconstrained optimization

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2017
To solve nonsmooth unconstrained minimization problems, we combine the spectral choice of step length with two well-established subdifferential-type schemes: the gradient sampling method and the simplex gradient method.

Lp-norms, Log-barriers and Cramer transform in Optimization

open access: yes, 2010
We show that the Laplace approximation of a supremum by Lp-norms has interesting consequences in optimization. For instance, the logarithmic barrier functions (LBF) of a primal convex problem P and its dual appear naturally when using this simple ...

Optimization problems with quasiconvex inequality constraints [PDF]

open access: yes
The constrained optimization problem min f(x), gj(x) 0 (j = 1, . . . , p) is considered, where f : X ! R and gj : X ! R are nonsmooth functions with domain X Rn.

A hybrid approach to the solution of a pricing model with continuous demand segmentation

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2013
Price optimization fits naturally the framework of bilevel programming, where a leader integrates within its decision process the reaction of rational customers.

On global optimization with indefinite quadratics

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2017
We present an algorithmic framework for global optimization problems in which the non-convexity is manifested as an indefinite-quadratic as part of the objective function.
