Abstract: Abstract Optimization theory and algorithms can take advantage of the smoothness of real-valued functions. The underlying assumption is that a reasonable starting point sufficiently close to a local extremum is already known, for example from performing a global optimization, and that (at least) the gradient of the objective function is available. After a discussion of the convergence rates of gradient descent, accelerated gradient descent, and the Newton method, the bfgs method is presented in detail, as it is one of the most popular quasi-Newton methods and highly effective in practice.
