We derive an asymptotic Newton algorithm for Quasi Maximum Likelihood estimation of the ICA mixture model, using the ordinary gradient and Hessian. The probabilistic mixture framework can accommodate non-stationary environments and arbitrary source densities. We prove asymptotic stability when the source models match the true sources. An application to EEG segmentation is given. Index Terms Ind...

Augmented Lagrangian methods for large-scale optimization usually require efficient algorithms for minimization with box constraints. On the other hand, active-set box-constraint methods employ unconstrained optimization algorithms for minimization inside the faces of the box. Several approaches may be employed for computing internal search directions in the large-scale case. In this paper a mi...

Tracking of a moving target by uncalibrated model independent visual servo control is achieved by developing a new \dynamic" quasi-Newton approach. Model independent visual servo control is de ̄ned as using visual feedback to control a robot without precisely calibrated kinematic and camera models. The control problem is formulated as a nonlinear least squares optimization. For the moving target...

One of the essential factors that affect the performance of Artificial Neural Networks is the learning algorithm. The performance of Multilayer Feed Forward Artificial Neural Network performance in image compression using different learning algorithms is examined in this paper. Based on Gradient Descent, Conjugate Gradient, Quasi-Newton techniques three different error back propagation algorith...

this study concerns with a trust-region-based method for solving unconstrained optimization problems. the approach takes the advantages of the compact limited memory bfgs updating formula together with an appropriate adaptive radius strategy. in our approach, the adaptive technique leads us to decrease the number of subproblems solving, while utilizing the structure of limited memory quasi-newt...
