function

`scipy.optimize._linesearch:line_search_armijo`

source: build-install/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/scipy/optimize/_linesearch.py:654

Signature

def line_search_armijo(f, xk, pk, gfk, old_fval, args = (), c1 = 0.0001, alpha0 = 1)

Summary

Minimize over alpha, the function f(xk+alpha pk).

Parameters

f : callable: Function to be minimized.
xk : array_like: Current point.
pk : array_like: Search direction.
gfk : array_like: Gradient of f at point xk.
old_fval : float: Value of f at point xk.
args : tuple, optional: Optional arguments.
c1 : float, optional: Value to control stopping criterion.
alpha0 : scalar, optional: Value of alpha at start of the optimization.

Returns

: alpha
: f_count
: f_val_at_alpha

Notes

Uses the interpolation algorithm (Armijo backtracking) as suggested by Wright and Nocedal in 'Numerical Optimization', 1999, pp. 56-57
