In this paper, we present a new approach for solving absolute value equation (AVE) whichuse Levenberg-Marquardt method with conjugate subgradient structure. In conjugate subgradientmethods the new direction obtain by combining steepest descent direction and the previous di-rection which may not lead to good numerical results. Therefore, we replace the steepest descentdir...

The techniques and analysis presented in this thesis provide new methods to solve optimization problems posed on Riemannian manifolds. These methods are applied to the subspace tracking problem found in adaptive signal processing and adaptive control. A new point of view is offered for the constrained optimization problem. Some classical optimization techniques on Euclidean space are generalize...

A fundamental task in numerical computation is the solution of large linear systems. The conjugate gradient method is an iterative method which offers rapid convergence to the solution, particularly when an effective preconditioner is employed. However, for more challenging systems a substantial error can be present even after many iterations have been performed. The estimates obtained in this ...

in this paper, the nonlinear conjugate map based on the conjugate hasofer-lind and rackwitz- fiessler (chl-rf) method is applied to evaluate the reliability index using first order reliability method of the embedded noanocompsite beam, which is made from polymer reinforced with carbon nanotubs (cnts). the structure is simulated with timoshenko beam model. the mori-tanaka model is applied for ca...

In this preliminary work, left and right conjugate vectors are deened for nonsymmetric, nonsin-gular matrices A and some properties of these vectors are studied. A left conjugate direction (LCD) method for solving nonsymmetric systems of linear equations is proposed. The method reduces to the usual conjugate gradient method when A is symmetric positive deenite. A nite termination property of th...

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major respiratory pathogen responsible for many diseases in young children and elderly. Because of the increasing antibiotic resistance of pneumococci recently, the need for development of an effective vaccine is more and more urgent. Since the 7-valent conjugate vaccine was licensed in the United States in 2000, its efficacy has been widely recognized. Effort on r...

In this paper‎, ‎two extended three-term conjugate gradient methods based on the Liu-Storey ({tt LS})‎ ‎conjugate gradient method are presented to solve unconstrained optimization problems‎. ‎A remarkable property of the proposed methods is that the search direction always satisfies‎ ‎the sufficient descent condition independent of line search method‎, ‎based on eigenvalue analysis‎. ‎The globa...

Nonlinear conjugate gradient method is well known in solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems due to it’s low storage requirement and simple to implement. Research activities on it’s application to handle higher dimensional systems of nonlinear equations are just beginning. This paper presents a Threeterm Conjugate Gradient algorithm for solving Large-Scale systems of nonlinear e...

We provide a unified optimization view of iterative Hessian sketch (IHS) and iterative dual random projection (IDRP). We establish a primal-dual connection between the Hessian sketch and dual random projection, and show that their iterative extensions are optimization processes with preconditioning. We develop accelerated versions of IHS and IDRP based on this insight together with conjugate gr...
