|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Before we proceed, we would like to discuss the approach called the
|
|
<b>standard Steepest descent</b> (different from the above steepest descent discussion), which again leads to us having to be able
|
|
to compute a matrix. It belongs to the class of Conjugate Gradient methods (CG).
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<a href="https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~quake-papers/painless-conjugate-gradient.pdf" target="_self">The success of the CG method</a>
|
|
for finding solutions of non-linear problems is based on the theory
|
|
of conjugate gradients for linear systems of equations. It belongs to
|
|
the class of iterative methods for solving problems from linear
|
|
algebra of the type
|
|
$$
|
|
\begin{equation*}
|
|
\boldsymbol{A}\boldsymbol{x} = \boldsymbol{b}.
|
|
\end{equation*}
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the iterative process we end up with a problem like
|
|
|
|
$$
|
|
\begin{equation*}
|
|
\boldsymbol{r}= \boldsymbol{b}-\boldsymbol{A}\boldsymbol{x},
|
|
\end{equation*}
|
|
$$
|
|
|
|
where \( \boldsymbol{r} \) is the so-called residual or error in the iterative process.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When we have found the exact solution, \( \boldsymbol{r}=0 \).
