    Abstract

    We introduce a new algorithm for the solution of systems of nonlinear equations and nonlinear least-squares problems that attempts to combine the efficiency of filter techniques and the robustness of trust-region methods. The algorithm is shown, under reasonable assumptions, to globally converge to zeros of the system, or to first-order stationary points of the Euclidean norm of its residual. Preliminary numerical experience is presented that shows substantial gains in efficiency over the traditional monotone trust-region approach. © 2004 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.
