\subsection{General features} |
5 |
|
|
|
6 |
|
|
The line search algorithm is based on a quasi-Newton |
7 |
|
|
variable storage method which was implemented by |
8 |
|
|
\cite{gil-mar:89}. |

\subsection{The online vs. offline version} |
13 |
|
|
|
14 |
|
|
\begin{itemize} |
15 |
|
|
% |
16 |
|
|
\item {\bf Online version} \\ |
17 |
|
|
Every call to {\it simul} refers to an execution of the |
18 |
|
|
forward and adjoint model. |
19 |
|
|
Several iterations of optimization may thus be performed within |
20 |
|
|
a single run of the main program (lsopt\_top). |
21 |
|
|
The following cases may occur: |
22 |
|
|
% |
23 |
|
|
\begin{itemize} |
24 |
|
|
\item |
25 |
|
|
cold start only (no optimization) |
26 |
|
|
\item |
27 |
|
|
cold start, followed by one or several iterations of optimization |
28 |
|
|
\item |
29 |
|
|
warm start from previous cold start with one or several iterations |
30 |
|
|
\item |
31 |
|
|
warm start from previous warm start with one or several iterations |
32 |
|
|
\end{itemize} |
33 |
|
|
% |
34 |
|
|
\item {\bf Offline version} \\ |
35 |
|
|
Every call to simul refers to a read procedure which |
36 |
|
|
reads the result of a forward and adjoint run |
37 |
|
|
Therefore, only one call to simul is allowed, |
38 |
|
|
{\tt itmax = 0}, for cold start |
39 |
|
|
{\tt itmax = 1}, for warm start |
40 |
|
|
Also, at the end, {\bf x(i+1)} needs to be computed and saved |
41 |
|
|
to be available for the offline model and adjoint run |
42 |
|
|
\end{itemize} |
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
|
|
In order to achieve minimum difference between the online and offline code |
45 |
|
|
{\bf xdiff(i+1)} is stored to file at the end of an (offline) iteration, |
46 |
|
|
but recomputed identically at the beginning of the next iteration. |
47 |
|
|
|
48 |
|
|
\subsection{Number of iterations vs. number of simulations} |
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
{\tt - itmax:} controls the max. number of iterations \\ |
51 |
|
|
{\tt - nfunc:} controls the max. number of simulations |
52 |
|
|
within one iteration |
53 |
|
|
|
54 |
|
|
\paragraph{Summary} ~ \\ |
55 |
|
|
From one iteration to the next the descent direction changes. |
56 |
|
|
Within one iteration more than one forward and adjoint |
57 |
|
|
run may be performed. |
58 |
|
|
The updated control used as input for these simulations uses the same |
59 |
|
|
descent direction, but different step sizes. |
60 |
|
|
|
61 |
|
|
\paragraph{Description} ~ \\ |
62 |
|
|
From one iteration to the next the descent direction dd changes using |
63 |
|
|
the result for the adjoint vector gg of the previous iteration. |
64 |
|
|
In lsline the updated control |
65 |
|
|
\[ |
66 |
|
|
\tt |
67 |
|
|
xdiff(i,1) = xx(i-1) + tact(i-1,1)*dd(i-1) |
68 |
|
|
\] |
69 |
|
|
serves as input for |
70 |
|
|
a forward and adjoint model run yielding a new {\tt gg(i,1)}. |
71 |
|
|
In general, the new solution passes the 1st and 2nd Wolfe tests |
72 |
|
|
so {\tt xdiff(i,1)} represents the solution sought: |
73 |
|
|
\[ |
74 |
|
|
{\tt xx(i) = xdiff(i,1)} |
75 |
|
|
\] |
76 |
|
|
If one of the two tests fails, |
77 |
|
|
an inter- or extrapolation is invoked to determine |
78 |
|
|
a new step size {\tt tact(i-1,2)}. |
79 |
|
|
If more than one function call is permitted, |
80 |
|
|
the new step size is used together |
81 |
|
|
with the "old" descent direction {\tt dd(i-1)} |
82 |
|
|
(i.e. dd is not updated using the new {\tt gg(i)}), |
83 |
|
|
to compute a new |
84 |
|
|
\[ |
85 |
|
|
{\tt xdiff(i,2) = xx(i-1) + tact(i-1,2)*dd(i-1)} |
86 |
|
|
\] |
87 |
|
|
that serves as input |
88 |
|
|
in a new forward and adjoint run, yielding {\tt gg(i,2)}. |
89 |
cnh |
1.2 |
If now, both Wolfe tests are successful, |
90 |
heimbach |
1.1 |
the updated solution is given by |
91 |
|
|
\[ |
92 |
|
|
\tt |
93 |
|
|
xx(i) = xdiff(i,2) = xx(i-1) + tact(i-1,2)*dd(i-1) |
94 |
|
|
\] |
95 |
|
|
|
96 |
|
|
In order to save memory both the fields dd and xdiff |
97 |
|
|
have a double usage. |
