Abstract

We propose a new inexact line search rule and analyze the global convergence and convergence rate of related descent methods. The new line search rule is similar to the Armijo line-search rule and contains it as a special case. We can choose a larger stepsize in each line-search procedure and maintain the global convergence of related line-search methods. This idea can make us design new line-search methods in some wider sense. In some special cases, the new descent method can reduce to the Barzilai and Borewein method. Numerical results show that the new line-search methods are efficient for solving unconstrained optimization problems.
