ACGHSIM: A Simulation Tool for Accelerated Conjugate Hessian Gradient Optimization Algorithm

Abstract

In this article a graphical user interface (GUI), "ACGHSIM" is developed for Simulation the accelerated conjugate Hessian optimization algorithm (ACGHES). ACGHSIM is provided for educational purpose to improve the understanding the convergence and acceleration of ACGHES algorithm in solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. ACGHSIM contains a library for 73 different test functions in optimization. The user has option to select one of these functions and simulate the ACGHES algorithm to calculate the minimum. Additionally the users are able to apply themselves initial points or use the suggested initial points by this application. In order to demonstrate the User Friendly features of ACGHSIM, some examples are given.
