Solution methods for optimization problems
In this training course, modern methods for solving optimization problems are detailed. Newton or Quasi-Newton methods for the solution of unconstrained minimization problems are first addressed. Globalization techniques such as trust region methods or adaptive cubic regularization are then detailed. Methods for solving problems without derivatives and problem with general constraints are also outlined. Finally, the solution of nonlinear least-squares problems arising in large-scale inverse problems with application to Earth sciences are reviewed.
