<p>Other efficient algorithms for unconstrained minimization are <a href="page.php?w=gradient_descent">gradient descent</a> (a special case of <a href="page.php?w=Method_of_steepest_descent">steepest descent</a>).</p>

<p>The more challenging problems are those with inequality constraints. A common way to solve them is to reduce them to unconstrained problems by adding a <a href="page.php?w=barrier_function">barrier function</a>, enforcing the inequality constraints, to the objective</p><p>
