Abstract

Complexity analysis has become an important tool in the convergence analysis of optimization algorithms. For derivative-free optimization algorithms, it is not different. Interestingly, several constants that appear when developing complexity results hide the dimensions of the problem. This work organizes several results in literature about bounds that appear in derivative-free trust-region algorithms based on linear and quadratic models. All the constants are given explicitly by the quality of the sample set, dimension of the problem and number of sample points. We extend some results to allow "inexact" interpolation sets. We also provide a clearer proof than those already existing in literature for the underdetermined case.
