Practical Methods of Optimization (Vol. 1)

Description

This book is very thorough in its treatment of select nonlinear programming techniques for unconstrained problems. The author provides an in-depth coverage of several useful methods, including newton, quasi-newton, least-squares, penalty, augmented lagrangian, quadratic, SQP, and even discontinuous nonlinear programming. Much emphasis is placed upon various quadratic approximation methods. It should be noted that several other well-known methods are not treated in any significant detail. The author seems to have made a conscious choice to concentrate on a set of core techniques at the expense of some others. In my view, this decision makes this book an excellent reference for those wishing to better understand the nuances and implementation details for the chosen methods. For the same reason, this book is probably not as well-suited as an introduction to the broader range of optimization methods. Since there are plenty of other books to choose from for this purpose, the author's choice to focus on some core methods enables his book to stand apart quite uniquely.
