@article {15699, title = {A Discrete Newton Algorithm for Minimizing a Function of Many Variables}, journal = {Mathematical Programming}, volume = {23}, year = {1982}, month = {1982///}, pages = {20 - 33}, abstract = {A Newton-like method is presented for minimizing a function of n variables. It uses only function and gradient values and is a variant of the discrete Newton algorithm. This variant requires fewer operations than the standard method when n > 39, and storage is proportional to n rather than n.}, author = {O{\textquoteright}Leary, Dianne P.} }
