A nonmonotone conjugate gradient algorithm for unconstrained optimization. (English) Zbl 1019.90039

Summary: Conjugate gradient methods are very important methods for unconstrained optimization, especially for large scale problems. In this paper, we propose a new conjugate gradient method, in which the technique of nonmonotone line search is used. Under mild assumptions, we prove the global convergence of the method. Some numerical results are also presented.
