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 ...

In this paper we test different conjugate gradient (CG) methods for solving largescale unconstrained optimization problems. The methods are divided in two groups: the first group includes five basic ...
