Abstract

Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient (CG) methods are extensively used for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Numerous of studies constructed scales and modifications have been conducted recently to improve (CG) methods. In this paper, a simple modified by its conjugate gradient method was proposed. In addition to, established global convergence property and sufficient descent condition, under Strong Wolfe line search. Numerical result shows that the proposed formula is competitive when compared to other well-known (CG) parameters.
