Modifications of the Limited Memory BFGS Algorithm for Large-scale Nonlinear Optimization [PDF]
In this paper we present two new numerical methods for unconstrained large-scale optimization. These methods apply update formulae, which are derived by considering different techniques of approximating the objective function.

An Algorithm for Unconstrained Quadratically Penalized Convex Optimization [PDF]
A descent algorithm, "Quasi-Quadratic Minimization with Memory" (QQMM), is proposed for unconstrained minimization of the sum, $F$, of a non-negative convex function, $V$, and a quadratic form. Such problems come up in regularized estimation in machine learning and statistics. In addition to values of $F$, QQMM requires the (sub)gradient of $V$.

Robust optimisation of unconstrained binary quadratic problems
In this paper we focus on the unconstrained binary quadratic optimization model, maximize x^t Qx, x binary, and consider the problem of identifying optimal solutions that are robust with respect to perturbations in the Q matrix.. We are motivated to find robust, or stable, solutions because of the uncertainty inherent in the big data origins of Q and ...

Exploiting Hardware and Software Advances for Quadratic Models of Wind Farm Layout Optimization
A key aspect of the design of a wind farm is the wind farm layout optimization (WFLO) problem: given a wind farm site and information about the wind patterns, the problem is to decide the location of individual wind turbines to maximize energy production
