Comparisons between Newton and Quasi-Newton method in solving unconstrained optimization problems / Naznin Faiqa Khirul Fozi & Hanis Sofia Mohd Rodi

Newton and Quasi-Newton methods are widely used in solving unconstrained optimization problems. The solution to optimization problems are known as local optimum solutions and global minimum solutions. For Newton method, if the initial points are far from the solution points, it may fail to converge....
