Talk:Linesearch
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sabamo 09:24, 20 August 2006 (UTC)The term "linesearch" is used here incorrectly. Linesearch refers to optimization of one dimensional functions f: R->R only.

[edit] Rename the article to line search method
- The term One dimensional optimization refers to optimizing a function f:R->R
- Given a function f: R^n -> R and two vectors p and q in R^n, the word line search refers to optimizating of the function function phi(alpha) = f(p+alpha q).
- A Line search method is an algorithm that applies line searches to optimize a function of several variables
