Abstract

Collinear scaling algorithms related to direct fixed-scale and rescaled least-change secant update methods for unconstrained minimization are derived. Theorems on local and q-superlinear convergence of these algorithms are presented. These results are extensions of those of Dennis and Walker [14] for direct least-change secant update methods.
