This paper presents a numerical comparison between algorithms for unconstrained optimization that take account of sparsity in the second derivative matrix of the objective function. Some of the ...

Purdue faculty dedicate countless hours to exploring the frontiers of their respective fields, pushing the boundaries of knowledge and contributing to the ever-evolving landscape of academia. To ...

In this paper the generalized Newton's method for LC¹ unconstrained optimization is investigated. This method is an extension of Newton's method for the smooth optimization. Some basic concepts are ...

In this article, as in industry, advanced process control (APC) refers primarily to multi-variable control. Multivariable control means adjusting multiple single-loop controllers in unison, to meet ...

Editor's Note: InTech with Automation.com is planning a survey of readers' input about how they would like to see multivariable control move forward. Please email your feedback or proposed survey ...
