A modified Hestenes–Stiefel conjugate gradient method with an optimal property

In this paper, based on the numerical efficiency of Hestenes–Stiefel (HS) method, a new modified HS algorithm is proposed for unconstrained optimization. The new direction independent of the line search satisfies in the sufficient descent condition. Motivated by theoretical and numerical features of three-term conjugate gradient (CG) methods proposed by Narushima et al., similar to Dai and Kou approach, the new direction is computed by...
