Continuing by induction the process of adding a linear combination of
the previous steps to the arbitrarily chosen direction (known in mathematics as the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization
process), we finally arrive at the complete definition of the new
step , as follows:

(22) |
Here the coefficients are defined by equations

(23) |
which correspond to the orthogonality principles

(24) |
and

(25) |
It is these orthogonality properties that allowed us to optimize the
search parameters one at a time instead of solving the n-dimensional
system of optimization equations for and .
