OSTI ID:5606031

This report presents an implementable class of collinear scaling algorithms for unconstrained minimization. A member of this class that extends the BFGS method does possess desirable properties similar to those shown for the BFGS method by Powell (1976). However, a major drawback is that in order to guarantee q-superlinear convergence, a parameter in the algorithm must be set to a value which depends on F. 8 refs.
