Book Conjugate Gradient Type Methods for Ill Posed Problems

Download or read book Conjugate Gradient Type Methods for Ill Posed Problems written by Martin Hanke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conjugate gradient method is a powerful tool for the iterative solution of self-adjoint operator equations in Hilbert space.This volume summarizes and extends the developments of the past decade concerning the applicability of the conjugate gradient method (and some of its variants) to ill posed problems and their regularization. Such problems occur in applications from almost all natural and technical sciences, including astronomical and geophysical imaging, signal analysis, computerized tomography, inverse heat transfer problems, and many more This Research Note presents a unifying analysis of an entire family of conjugate gradient type methods. Most of the results are as yet unpublished, or obscured in the Russian literature. Beginning with the original results by Nemirovskii and others for minimal residual type methods, equally sharp convergence results are then derived with a different technique for the classical Hestenes-Stiefel algorithm. In the final chapter some of these results are extended to selfadjoint indefinite operator equations. The main tool for the analysis is the connection of conjugate gradient type methods to real orthogonal polynomials, and elementary properties of these polynomials. These prerequisites are provided in a first chapter. Applications to image reconstruction and inverse heat transfer problems are pointed out, and exemplarily numerical results are shown for these applications.

Book Conjugate Gradient Algorithms and Finite Element Methods

Download or read book Conjugate Gradient Algorithms and Finite Element Methods written by M. Křížek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-06-11 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The position taken in this collection of pedagogically written essays is that conjugate gradient algorithms and finite element methods complement each other extremely well. Via their combinations practitioners have been able to solve complicated, direct and inverse, multidemensional problems modeled by ordinary or partial differential equations and inequalities, not necessarily linear, optimal control and optimal design being part of these problems. The aim of this book is to present both methods in the context of complicated problems modeled by linear and nonlinear partial differential equations, to provide an in-depth discussion on their implementation aspects. The authors show that conjugate gradient methods and finite element methods apply to the solution of real-life problems. They address graduate students as well as experts in scientific computing.

Book Conjugate gradient method for the solution of optimal control problems governed by weakly singular Volterra integral equations with the use of the collocation method

This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Mathematics - Applied Mathematics, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: In this research, a novel method to approximate the solution of optimal control problems governed by Volterra integral equations of weakly singular types is proposed. The method introduced here is the conjugate gradient method with a discretization of the problem based on the collocation approach on graded mesh points for non linear Volterra integral equations with singular kernels. Necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for optimal control problems are also discussed. Some examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the method.

Book Preconditioning and the Conjugate Gradient Method in the Context of Solving PDEs

Download or read book Preconditioning and the Conjugate Gradient Method in the Context of Solving PDEs written by Josef Malek and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2014-12-22 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preconditioning and the Conjugate Gradient Method in the Context of Solving PDEs?is about the interplay between modeling, analysis, discretization, matrix computation, and model reduction. The authors link PDE analysis, functional analysis, and calculus of variations with matrix iterative computation using Krylov subspace methods and address the challenges that arise during formulation of the mathematical model through to efficient numerical solution of the algebraic problem. The book?s central concept, preconditioning of the conjugate gradient method, is traditionally developed algebraically using the preconditioned finite-dimensional algebraic system. In this text, however, preconditioning is connected to the PDE analysis, and the infinite-dimensional formulation of the conjugate gradient method and its discretization and preconditioning are linked together. This text challenges commonly held views, addresses widespread misunderstandings, and formulates thought-provoking open questions for further research.?

Book Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient Methods for Unconstrained Optimization

Download or read book Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient Methods for Unconstrained Optimization written by Neculai Andrei and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two approaches are known for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems—the limited-memory quasi-Newton method (truncated Newton method) and the conjugate gradient method. This is the first book to detail conjugate gradient methods, showing their properties and convergence characteristics as well as their performance in solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems and applications. Comparisons to the limited-memory and truncated Newton methods are also discussed. Topics studied in detail include: linear conjugate gradient methods, standard conjugate gradient methods, acceleration of conjugate gradient methods, hybrid, modifications of the standard scheme, memoryless BFGS preconditioned, and three-term. Other conjugate gradient methods with clustering the eigenvalues or with the minimization of the condition number of the iteration matrix, are also treated. For each method, the convergence analysis, the computational performances and the comparisons versus other conjugate gradient methods are given. The theory behind the conjugate gradient algorithms presented as a methodology is developed with a clear, rigorous, and friendly exposition; the reader will gain an understanding of their properties and their convergence and will learn to develop and prove the convergence of his/her own methods. Numerous numerical studies are supplied with comparisons and comments on the behavior of conjugate gradient algorithms for solving a collection of 800 unconstrained optimization problems of different structures and complexities with the number of variables in the range [1000,10000]. The book is addressed to all those interested in developing and using new advanced techniques for solving unconstrained optimization complex problems. Mathematical programming researchers, theoreticians and practitioners in operations research, practitioners in engineering and industry researchers, as well as graduate students in mathematics, Ph.D. and master students in mathematical programming, will find plenty of information and practical applications for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems and applications by conjugate gradient methods.

Book Adaptations of the Conjugate Gradient Method to Optimal Control Problems with Terminal State Constraints

Download or read book Adaptations of the Conjugate Gradient Method to Optimal Control Problems with Terminal State Constraints written by John Kendall Willoughby and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The method of conjugate gradients (CG) has been shown to be a rapidly converging and efficient means of solving unconstrained optimal control problems. This dissertation presents some theoretical and computational characteristics of three modifications to the CG algorithm which make it applicable to control problems with terminal state variable constraints. The penalty function method and the projection method have been used to adapt ordinary gradient methods to constrained problems. It is concluded here that the penalty function technique is no more or less advantageous with the CG method than with other gradient techniques. The projection method is shown to be theoretically less compatible with the CG algorithm than with other gradient methods. However, a stepsize adjustment policy is suggested that preserves the rapid convergence that is characteristic of the CG method. It is also shown that nonlinear instead of linear terminal constraints cause no additional theoretical of computational difficulty. A third adaptation of the CG method is given which is original to this study. The method, called the modified conjugate gradient method (MCG), is applied to constrained problems by using constant Lagrange multipliers which converge to their optimal values as the iteration proceeds. A unique feature of the MCG method is that each control iterate produced by the method causes the constraints to be satisfied exactly. Furthermore, the technique is equally applicable to nonlinear and linear terminal state constraints. (Author).
