The merit function by Tapia and Argaez
Alias: none
Argument(s): none
The "argaez_tapia" merit function can be classified as a modified augmented Lagrangian function. The augmented Lagrangian is modified by adding to its penalty term a potential reduction function to handle the perturbed complementarity condition. The cost per linesearch iteration is one function evaluation. For more information, see [83].
If the function evaluation is expensive or noisy, set the merit_function
to "argaez_tapia" or "van_shanno".
