A conjugate gradient method with descent direction for unconstrained optimization

A modified conjugate gradient method is presented for solving unconstrained optimization problems, which possesses the following properties: (i) The sufficient descent property is satisfied without any line search; (ii) The search direction will be in a trust region automatically; (iii) The Zoutendijk condition holds for the Wolfe–Powell line search technique; (iv) This method inherits an important property of the well-known Polak–Ribière–Polyak...
