UnitLineSearch Class

Implements a line search algorithm that always takes a unit step.

Definition

Namespace: Numerics.NET.Optimization.LineSearches
Assembly: Numerics.NET (in Numerics.NET.dll) Version: 9.0.4
C#
public class UnitLineSearch : OneDimensionalOptimizer
Inheritance
Object  →  ManagedIterativeAlgorithm<Double, Double, SolutionReport<Double, Double>>  →  ManagedIterativeAlgorithm<Double>  →  OneDimensionalOptimizer  →  UnitLineSearch

Remarks

Use the UnitLineSearch class to force an optimization algorithm to take a full step in every iteration. Quasi-Newton methods perform a line search in order to find a point that will guarantee convergence. When close to the solution, taking unit steps will lead to quadratic convergence.

This class is not suitable for general optimization in one dimension.

Constructors

UnitLineSearch Constructs a new UnitLineSearch object.
