The new algorithm form of the Fletcher – Reeves Conjugate gradient algorithm

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new spectral form of the Fletcher – Reeves conjugate gradient algorithm for solving unconstrained optimization problems which has sufficient descent direction. We prove the global convergent of these algorithms under Wolf line search conditions. We presented some numerical result and comparison with Fletcher – Reeves algorithm.
