Abstract: Nonlinear conjugate gradient methods are a class of techniques that are used for solving nonlinear optimisation problems frequently arising in many engineering applications such as machine learning, computer vision, least-square optimisations, to name a few. With so many surveys on the nonlinear conjugate gradient method (NLCG) available around, this paper addresses the current updates and sheds a new light on the evolution of hybrid conjugate gradient parameters with their global convergence properties.

Keywords: unconstrained optimisation; conjugate gradient method; nonlinear conjugate gradient method; hybrid conjugate parameter.
