AN ALGORITHM TO MINIMIZE SINGLE VARIABLE POLYNOMIAL, FUNCTIONS FROM ANY STARTING POINT WITH QUADRATIC CONVERGENCE

Search methods often display non-convergence or excessive convergence time on certain classes of nonlinear functions arising in engineering design. The authors will define a new geometric -programming based search method for single variable polynomials that displays quadratic convergence from any st...
