Classical Subgradient Rules
Let be a convex function with domain . A classical subgradient method iterates
where denotes a subgradient of at . If is differentiable, then its only subgradient is the gradient vector itself. It may happen that is not a descent direction for at . We therefore maintain a list that keeps track of the lowest objective function value found so far, i.e.

Famous quotes containing the words classical and/or rules:
“Classical art, in a word, stands for form; romantic art for content. The romantic artist expects people to ask, What has he got to say? The classical artist expects them to ask, How does he say it?”
—R.G. (Robin George)
