Convergence Properties of the Nelder--Mead Simplex Method in Low Dimensions

Jeffrey C. Lagarias, James A. Reeds, Margaret H. Wright et al. · 1 Jan 1998

Abstract. The Nelder–Mead simplex algorithm, first published in 1965, is an enormously popular direct search method for multidimensional unconstrained minimization. Despite its widespread use, essentially no theoretical results have been proved explicitly for the Nelder–Mead algorithm. This paper presents convergence properties of the Nelder–Mead algorithm applied to strictly convex functions in dimensions 1 and 2.…

A Singular Value Thresholding Algorithm for Matrix Completion

Jian‐Feng Cai, Emmanuel J. Candès, Zuowei Shen · 1 Jan 2010

Abstract. This paper introduces a novel algorithm to approximate the matrix with minimum nuclear norm among all matrices obeying a set of convex constraints. This problem may be understood as the convex relaxation of a rank minimization problem and arises in many important applications as in the task of recovering a large matrix from a…

An Interior Trust Region Approach for Nonlinear Minimization Subject to Bounds

Thomas F. Coleman, Yuying Li · 1 May 1996

We propose a new trust region approach for minimizing a nonlinear function subject to simple bounds. Unlike most existing methods, our proposed method does not require that a quadratic programming subproblem, with inequality constraints, be solved in each iteration. Instead, a solution to a trust region subproblem is defined by minimizing a quadratic function subject…

Normal-Boundary Intersection: A New Method for Generating the Pareto Surface in Nonlinear Multicriteria Optimization Problems

Indraneel Das, J. E. Dennis · 1 Aug 1998

This paper proposes an alternate method for finding several Pareto optimal points for a general nonlinear multicriteria optimization problem. Such points collectively capture the trade-off among the various conflicting objectives. It is proved that this method is independent of the relative scales of the functions and is successful in producing an evenly distributed set of…

Global Optimization with Polynomials and the Problem of Moments

Jean B. Lasserre · 1 Jan 2001

Abstract. We consider the problem of finding the unconstrained global minimum of a realvalued polynomial p(x):R n → R, as well as the global minimum of p(x), in a compact set K defined bypolynomial inequalities. It is shown that this problem reduces to solving an (often finite) sequence of convex linear matrix inequality(LMI) problems. A…

SIAM Journal on Optimization template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the SIAM Journal on Optimization format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the SIAM Journal on Optimization template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official SIAM format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does SIAM Journal on Optimization use?
SIAM Journal on Optimization uses Numbered (SIAM) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: [1] A. Smith, B. Jones, and C. Lee, A representative article title, SIAM Journal on Optimization 12 (2023) 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to SIAM Journal on Optimization?
No. DocuGuru generates the siamart250211 LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a SIAM-ready SIAM Journal on Optimization document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the SIAM Journal on Optimization template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the SIAM Journal on Optimization format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is SIAM Journal on Optimization?
SIAM journal. It is a mathematics journal, published by SIAM.
Can I export a submission-ready SIAM Journal on Optimization PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official SIAM Journal on Optimization template (the siamart250211 class) that is ready to submit to SIAM, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the SIAM Journal on Optimization template cost?
You can start writing in the SIAM Journal on Optimization template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready SIAM Journal on Optimization PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
