This can improve the convergence on multiple roots where the ordinary Newton algorithm is slow. x[i+1] = x[i] - f(x[i]) / f'(x[i]) x_accelerated[i] = x[i] - (x[i+1] - x[i])**2 / (x[i+2] - 2*x[i+1] + x[i]) We can only use the accelerated estimate after three iterations, and use the unaccelerated value until then. */ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include "roots.h" typedef struct { double f, df; double x; double x_1; double x_2; int count; } steffenson_state_t; static int steffenson_init (void * vstate, gsl_function_fdf * fdf, double * root); static int steffenson_iterate (void * vstate, gsl_function_fdf * fdf, double * root); static int steffenson_init (void * vstate, gsl_function_fdf * fdf, double * root) { steffenson_state_t * state = (steffenson_state_t *) vstate; const double x = *root ; state->f = GSL_FN_FDF_EVAL_F (fdf, x); state->df = GSL_FN_FDF_EVAL_DF (fdf, x) ; state->x = x; state->x_1 = 0.0; state->x_2 = 0.0; state->count = 1; return GSL_SUCCESS; } static int steffenson_iterate (void * vstate, gsl_function_fdf * fdf, double * root) { steffenson_state_t * state = (steffenson_state_t *) vstate; double x_new, f_new, df_new; double x_1 = state->x_1 ; double x = state->x ; if (state->df == 0.0) { GSL_ERROR("derivative is zero", GSL_EZERODIV); } x_new = x - (state->f / state->df); GSL_FN_FDF_EVAL_F_DF(fdf, x_new, &f_new, &df_new); state->x_2 = x_1 ; state->x_1 = x ; state->x = x_new; state->f = f_new ; state->df = df_new ; if (!gsl_finite (f_new)) { GSL_ERROR ("function value is not finite", GSL_EBADFUNC); } if (state->count < 3) { *root = x_new ; state->count++ ; } else { double u = (x - x_1) ; double v = (x_new - 2 * x + x_1); if (v == 0) *root = x_new; /* avoid division by zero */ else *root = x_1 - u * u / v ; /* accelerated value */ } if (!gsl_finite (df_new)) { GSL_ERROR ("derivative value is not finite", GSL_EBADFUNC); } return GSL_SUCCESS; } static const gsl_root_fdfsolver_type steffenson_type = {"steffenson", /* name */ sizeof (steffenson_state_t), &steffenson_init, &steffenson_iterate}; const gsl_root_fdfsolver_type * gsl_root_fdfsolver_steffenson = &steffenson_type;
