Abstract: Spectral conjugate gradient method has been used in most cases as an alternative to the conjugate gradient (CG) method in order to solve nonlinear unconstrained problems. In this paper, we introduced a spectral parameter of HS conjugate gradient method resultant from the classical CG search direction and used some of the standard test functions with numerous variables to prove its sufficient descent and global convergence properties, the numerical outcome is verified by exact line search procedures.
Keywords: Unconstrained Optimization, Sufficient Descent Property, Spectral Conjugate Gradient, Global Convergence.
Scope of the Article: Cross-Layer Optimization.
