Worst case complexity of direct search

In this paper, we prove that the broad class of direct-search methods of directional type based on imposing sufficient decrease to accept new iterates shares the worst case complexity bound of steepest descent for the unconstrained minimization of a smooth function, more precisely that the number of...
