“…For example, the classic Newton's method according to the EI above, has the efficiency √ 2 = 1.4142, since it converges quadratically with the requirement of two pieces of information (one function evaluation and one derivative evaluation). Regarding iterations in the form of vector or matrix, an evaluation index in terms of flop counts is more appropriate [6,9]. For structured Newton's method, the computation cost for each iteration x (k) is about (21J k − 10)n, where J k is the number of FADI iterations in each Newton step.…”
