In this paper, we deal with matrix-free preconditioners for nonlinear conjugate gradient (NCG) methods. In particular, we review proposals based on quasi-Newton updates, and either satisfying the secant equation or a secant-like equation at some of the previous iterates. Conditions are given...

We consider the problem of extracting a complete set of numerical parameters that characterize the robot dynamics, starting from the identified values of dynamic coefficients that linearly parametrize the robot dynamic equations. This information is relevant when realistic dynamic simulations have...

We consider the convex quadratic linearly constrained problem with bounded variables and with huge and dense Hessian matrix that arises in many applications such as the training problem of bias support vector machines. We propose a decomposition algorithmic scheme suitable to parallel...
