Short Paper - Quadratic minimization: from conjugate gradient to an adaptive Polyak’s momentum method with Polyak step-sizes by Goujaud, Baptiste, Taylor, Adrien, Dieuleveut, Aymeric

“…This method happens to also be equivalent to a variation of the classical conjugate gradient method, and thereby inherits many of its attractive features, including its finite-time convergence, instance optimality, and its worst-case convergence rates.The classical gradient method with Polyak step-sizes is known to behave very well in situations in which it can be used, and the question of whether incorporating momentum in this method is possible and can improve the method itself appeared to be open. …”
