MAT 258A: Homework 4

Exercise 4

In this exercise, I test the code of 'pure' Newton (newtmin), Newton method with Armijo backtracking (newtmin1), Newton method with Armijo backtracking and two different way of treatment of the Hessian (newtmin2 and newtmin3) and BFGS method with treatment of the initial Hessian (mybfgs)

$ \begin{array}{cccccc} &\textrm{pure Newton}&\textrm{newtmin1}&\textrm{newtmin2}&\textrm{newtmin3}&\textrm{GFGS}\\ 1&\surd &&&&\\ 2&\times &\times&\times&\times&\surd\\ 3&\surd &&&&\\ 4&\surd &&&&\\ 5&\surd &&&&\\ 6&\surd &&&&\\ 7&\times &\times&\times&\times&\surd\\ 8&\surd &&&&\\ 9&\surd &&&&\\ 10&\times &\times&\surd&&\\ 11&\times &\times&\times&\surd&\\ 12&\times &\times&\surd&&\\ 13&\surd &&&&\\ 14&\times &\times&\times&\times&\times\\ 15&\times &\times&\times&\times&\surd\\ 16&\surd &&&&\\ 17&\surd &&&&\\ 18&\times &\times&\times&\times&\times\\ \end{array} $

The above table shows the outcome of those methods, it is 'success' if the gradient's norm is relatively small, i.e., $\frac{\|g(x^*)\|}{\|g(x_0)\|}\leqslant10^{-5}$, this is a relatively high requirement and actually one can see that those 'failed' cases in BFGS and newtmin2 and newtmin3 also have a relatively small norm of the gradient. Below is technical details of the exercise.
