Abstract

In this article we consider schemes of the error estimates development for numerical methods solving optimization problems. Suggested error estimates are formulated as functions depended on various values generated by numerical methods (i.e. points, function values, gradient values, etc.). These functions do not depend on such problem’s parameters like Lipshitz constant, strong convexity constant and etc. The numerical value of the error estimates is calculated after receiving accurate enough problem’s solution. Error estimates were received both for target function value and argument value.

The research was supported by Russian Science Foundation (project No. 21-71-30005).

Notes

  1. 1.

    Parameters of the objective function allows explicitly find problem solution \(x^* = \beta \), \(f(x^*) = 0\).
