Projected Structured Hessian Updating Schemes for Constrained Nonlinear Least Squares : Asymptotic Analysis

چکیده
We present a structured algorithm for solving constrained nonlinear least squares problems, and establish its local two-step Q-superlinear convergence. The approach is based on an adaptive structured scheme due to Mahdavi-Amiri and Bartels of the exact penalty method of Coleman and Conn for nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. The structured adaptation also makes use of the ideas of Nocedal and Overton for handling quasi-Newton updates of projected Hessians. We discuss the comparative results of the testing of our programs and three nonlinear programming codes from KNITRO on some randomly generated test problems due to Bartels and Mahdavi-Amiri. The results indeed confirm the practical significance of our special considerations for the inherent structure of the least squares.

In this paper, we use a penalty method for solving the linear least squares problem with nonlinear constraints. In each iteration of penalty methods for solving the problem, the calculation of projected Hessian matrix is required. Given that the objective function is linear least squares, projected Hessian matrix of the penalty function consists of two parts that the exact amount of a part of i...

متن کاملA Hessian-Based Method for Uncertainty Quantification in Global Ocean State Estimation
Derivative-based methods are developed for uncertainty quantification (UQ) in largescale ocean state estimation. The estimation system is based on the adjoint method for solving a least-squares optimization problem, whereby the state-of-the-art MIT general circulation model (MITgcm) is fit to observations. The UQ framework is applied to quantify Drake Passage transport uncertainties in a global...
