Expand description

Newton’s method

Newton’s method iteratively finds the stationary points of a function f by using a second order approximation of f at the current point.

The stepsize gamma can be adjusted with the with_gamma method. It must be in (0, 1]) and defaults to 1.

Requirements on the optimization problem

The optimization problem is required to implement Gradient and Hessian.

Implementations

Construct a new instance of Newton

Example
let newton: Newton<f64> = Newton::new();

Set step size gamma

Gamma must be in (0, 1] and defaults to 1.

Example
let newton: Newton<f64> = Newton::new().with_gamma(0.4)?;
