Abstract

In this paper,we present a more general modified BFGS(MBFGS)method based on the new quasi-Newton equation Hiroshi Yabe proposed.Under some suitable conditions,we prove local q-superlinear convergence of our method with Wolfe linear search.Meanwhile,numerical experiment results also show that compared with the generally used method,our modified BFGS presented is correct and efficient for unconstrained optimization.
