A non-Secant quasi-Newton Method for Unconstrained Nonlinear Optimization

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2022
The Secant equation has long been the foundation of quasi-Newton methods, as updated Hessian approximations satisfy the equation with each iteration. Several publications have lately focused on modified versions of the Secant relation, with promising ...

Quasi-likelihood functions, generalized linear models, and the Gauss-Newton method

open access: yes, 1974
To define a likelihood we have to specify the form of distribution of the observations, but to define a quasi-likelihood function we need only specify a relation between the mean and variance of the observations and the quasi-likelihood can then be used ...

ROBUST QUASI-NEWTON EQUATIONS IN QUASI-NEWTON METHOD FOR SOLVING UNCONSTRAINED OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS

open access: yesBarekeng
Quasi-Newton methods are among the most widely used and effective general-purpose algorithms for unconstrained optimization. These methods traditionally rely on the quasi-Newton equation, which serves as the foundation for updating approximations of the

Quasi-Newton Methods, Motivation and Theory [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Review, 1977
This paper is an attempt to motivate and justify quasi-Newton methods as useful modifications of Newton's method for general and gradient nonlinear systems of equations. References are given to ample numerical justification; here we give an overview of many of the important theoretical results and each is accompanied by sufficient discussion to make ...

A Newton-Like Trust Region Method for Large-Scale Unconstrained Nonconvex Minimization

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
We present a new Newton-like method for large-scale unconstrained nonconvex minimization. And a new straightforward limited memory quasi-Newton updating based on the modified quasi-Newton equation is deduced to construct the trust region subproblem, in ...

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

From Folding Mechanics to Robotic Function: A Unified Modeling Framework for Compliant Origami

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A geometry‐consistent DDG framework captures compliant origami deformation from rigid‐like folding to soft panel bending. By tuning crease and panel stiffness, bistable snap‐through responses transform into smooth monostable deformation, enabling programmable stability and robot‐scale locomotion.

Extending Broyden's method to interaction problems

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Analysis and Approximation Theory, 2008
The solution of problems involving the interaction of different systems is a domain of ongoing research, although often a good solver already exists for each system separately.
