liblbfgs简介

liblbfgs是L-BFGS算法的C语言实现，用于求解非线性优化问题。

用于Windows平台

Linux下用gcc 编译

解压文件，进入目录，可参照软件包里面的说明文档，命令依次如下：

./configure

make

make install

编译后的目录文件：

C源码文件在lib,include和 sample 三个文件夹里，而主文件在’sample’ 里，其目录如下：

其中没有文件后缀名的文件sample就是最终的可执行文件，运行：
这里写图片描述

Windows下用visual studio编译

只需要把几个C/C++源码文件加入到项目即可，其余的文件一律弃之不用，如下图所示的VS项目文件的目录，我们只要 4 个头文件 arithmetic_ansi.h， arithmetic_sse_double.h， arithmetic_sse_float.h，lbfgs.h 和三个源文件
lbfgs.c， sample.c， sample.cpp。

主函数文件（包含main函数）是 sample.c（用c语言写的），和 sample.cpp（用C++写成，封装成一个类）。一个VS项目里只能有一个main函数，所以每次运行要禁用二者中的一个。

需要注意的是头文件中的 arithmetic_ansi.h， arithmetic_sse_double.h， arithmetic_sse_float.h，三个头文件只能用一个，选择哪个由’lbfgs.cpp’中一段代码控制，该段代码如下：

默认情况下 USE_SSE、__SSE2__、__SSE__ 都没有定义，L-BFGS_FLOAT 在 lbfgs.h中定义。由此可知默认情况下采用的是 arithmetic_ansi.h 。

若要采用 arithmetic_sse_double.h，经查L-BFGS_FLOAT 被定义为 64，所以再定义其它两个变量，如下：

SSE2到底是什么东西呢？插入一段相关介绍：

SSE2(Streaming SIMD Extensions 2)：指令集，扩展了SSE指令集，并可完全取代MMX。SSE2指令集是Intel公司在SSE指令集的基础上发展起来的。相比于SSE，SSE2使用了144个新增指令，扩展了MMX技术和SSE技术，提高了诸如MPEG-2、MP3、3D图形等应用程序的运行性能。在整数处理方面，随MMX技术引进的SIMD整数指令从64位扩展到了128 位，使SIMD整数类型操作的执行效率成倍提高；在浮点数处理方面，双精度浮点SIMD指令允许以 SIMD格式同时执行两个浮点操作，提供双精度操作支持有助于加速内容创建、财务、工程和科学应用。除SSE2指令之外，最初的SSE指令也得到增强，通过支持多种数据类型(例如双字、四字)的算术运算，支持灵活、动态范围更广的计算功能。

可见引入 arithmetic_sse_double.h 或 arithmetic_sse_float.h 是为了提高浮点数的运算速度，改善程序性能。

main函数分析

main函数里给出了一个用L-BFGS算法进行非线性优化的例子，贴出main函数的代码：
