Brent’s method

A minimization algorithm combining parabolic interpolation and the golden-section method. It has the reliability of the golden-section method, but can be faster thanks to the parabolic interpolation steps.

Requirements on the optimization problem

The optimization problem is required to implement CostFunction.

Implementations

Constructor

The values min and max must bracket the minimum of the function.

Set the tolerance to the value required.

The algorithm will return an approximation x of a local minimum of the function, with an accuracy smaller than 3 tol, where tol = eps*abs(x) + t. It is useless to set eps to less than the square root of the machine precision (F::epsilon().sqrt()), which is its default value. The default value of t is 1e-5.
