Description
Summary:In this paper, a trust-region sequential quadratic programming algorithm with a modified filter acceptance mechanism is proposed for nonlinear equality constrained optimization. The most important advantage of the proposed algorithm is its avoidance of any feasibility restoration phase, a necessity in traditional filter methods. We solve quadratic programming subproblems based on the well-known Byrd–Omojokun trust-region method. Inexact solutions to these subproblems are allowed. Under some standard assumptions, global convergence of the proposed algorithm is established. Numerical results show our approach is potentially useful.
