1. Introduction
|
|
=========================================================================
|
|
libLBFGS is a C port of the implementation of Limited-memory
|
|
Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (L-BFGS) method written by Jorge Nocedal.
|
|
The original FORTRAN source code is available at:
|
|
http://www.ece.northwestern.edu/~nocedal/lbfgs.html
|
|
|
|
The L-BFGS method solves the unconstrainted minimization problem:
|
|
minimize F(x), x = (x1, x2, ..., xN),
|
|
only if the objective function F(x) and its gradient G(x) are computable.
|
|
|
|
Refer to the libLBFGS web site for more information.
