Proper Generalized Decomposition
The proper generalized decomposition (PGD) is an iterative method, iterative numerical method for solving boundary value problems (BVPs), that is, partial differential equations constrained by a set of boundary conditions, such as the Poisson's equation or the Laplace's equation. The PGD algorithm computes an approximation of the solution of the BVP by successive enrichment. This means that, in each iteration, a new component (or ''mode'') is computed and added to the approximation. In principle, the more modes obtained, the closer the approximation is to its theoretical solution. Unlike Proper orthogonal decomposition, POD principal components, PGD modes are not necessarily orthogonal to each other. By selecting only the most relevant PGD modes, a reduced order model of the solution is obtained. Because of this, PGD is considered a dimensionality reduction algorithm.

Iterative Method
In computational mathematics, an iterative method is a Algorithm, mathematical procedure that uses an initial value to generate a sequence of improving approximate solutions for a class of problems, in which the ''i''-th approximation (called an "iterate") is derived from the previous ones. A specific implementation with Algorithm#Termination, termination criteria for a given iterative method like gradient descent, hill climbing, Newton's method, or Quasi-Newton method, quasi-Newton methods like Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno algorithm, BFGS, is an algorithm of an iterative method or a method of successive approximation. An iterative method is called ''Convergent series, convergent'' if the corresponding sequence converges for given initial approximations. A mathematically rigorous convergence analysis of an iterative method is usually performed; however, heuristic-based iterative methods are also common. In contrast, direct methods attempt to solve the problem by a finit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
