Abstract

A method of truncated codifferential descent for minimizing continuously codifferentiable functions is suggested. The convergence of the method is studied. Results of numerical experiments are presented. Application of the suggested method for the solution of some problems of cluster analysis are discussed. In numerical experiments Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer database was used.
