This software finds an optimal solution for any smooth nonlinear function provided by users.

This function finds an optimal solution for unconstrained nonlinear optimization problems. It implements a globally and quadratically convergent Algorithm designed for both convex and non-convex functions proposed in: [Y. Yang, A globally and quadratically convergent algorithm with efficient implementation for unconstrained optimization, Computational and Applied Mathematics (2015) 34 (3):1219–1236.
