Projected Newton Methods for Optimization Problems with Simple Constraints

We consider the problem $\min \{ f(x)|x \geqq 0\} $, and propose algorithms of the form $x_{k + 1} = [x_k - \alpha _k D_k \nabla f(x_k )]^ + $, where $[ \cdot ]^ + $ denotes projection on the positive orthant, $\alpha _k $ is a stepsize chosen by an Armijo-like rule and $D_k $ is a positive definite...
