ConjugateGradient

class ConjugateGradient extends Minimizer with Error

The ConjugateGradient class implements the Polak-Ribiere Conjugate Gradient (PR-CG) Algorithm for solving Non-Linear Programming (NLP) problems. PR-CG determines a search direction as a weighted combination of the steepest descent direction (-gradient) and the previous direction. The weighting is set by the beta function, which for this implementation used the Polak-Ribiere technique.

dir_k = -gradient (x) + beta * dir_k-1

minimize f(x) subject to g(x) <= 0 [ optionally g(x) == 0 ]
