Abstract

Higher order optimization methods, though of long-standing tradition, have been, until recently, deemed impractical. Advances in technology and in the theory of automatic differentiation already afford implementations of these methods that are competitive to second order methods. The object of this project is the study of Halley's method, its computer implementation and testing. (AU)
