In this paper, we propose a new updating rule of the LevenbergMarquardt (LM) parameter for the LM method for nonlinear equations. We show that the global complexity bound of the new LM algorithm is O( −2), that is, it requires at most O( −2) iterations to derive the norm of the gradient of the merit function below the desired accuracy .

The linearized approach to the shape from motion problem, e.g. the factorization method, is robust to find a unique solution with fast computation, but the occlusion and perspective distortion are out of scope in the linear formulation. In contrast, the nonlinear approach is free from such limitations, yet it involves two problems; one is to find the globally optimal solution and the other to r...

multiple traveling salesman problem (mtsp) is one of the most popular operation research problem and is known as combinatorial optimization problems. mtsp is an extension version of the famous and widely used problem named traveling salesman problem (tsp). because of its benefices in various domains, many researchers have tried to solve that, and many methods have proposed so far. mtsp is a np-...

We propose a new self-adaptive Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm for the system of nonlinear equations F(x) = 0. The Levenberg-Marquardt parameter is chosen as the product of ‖Fk‖ with δ being a positive constant, and some function of the ratio between the actual reduction and predicted reduction of the merit function. Under the local error bound condition which is weaker than the nonsingularity, w...

The performance of Newton-Raphson, LevenbergMarquardt, Damped Newton-Raphson and genetic algorithms are investigated for the estimation of induction motor equivalent circuit parameters from commonly available manufacturer data. A new hybrid algorithm is then proposed that combines the advantages of both descent and natural optimisation algorithms. Through computer simulation, the hybrid algorit...

We consider the localization problem of multiple wideband sources in a multi-path environment by coherently taking into account the attenuation characteristics and the time delays in the reception of the signal. Our proposed method leaves the space for unavailability of an accurate signal attenuation model in the environment by considering the model as an unknown function with reasonable prior ...

This study presents an analysis of a cerebral autoregulation (CA) model developed by Ursino and Lodi Ursino and Lodi (1997). We have used this model to analyze non-invasive measurements of cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) and arterial blood pressure obtained during postural change from sitting to standing for a healthy young subject. This paper includes a sensitivity analysis, ranking model ...

The task to compute 3D reconstructions from large amounts of data has become an active field of research within the last years. Based on an initial estimate provided by structure from motion, bundle adjustment seeks to find a solution that is optimal for all cameras and 3D points. The corresponding nonlinear optimization problem is usually solved by the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm combined wi...

determining the optimal location of wells with the aid of an automated search algorithm is a significant and difficult step in the reservoir development process. it is a computationally intensive task due to the large number of simulation runs required. therefore,the key issue to such automatic optimization is development of algorithms that can find acceptable solutions with a minimum number of...
