This paper aims to propose a new version of the CG method on the basis of Weak Wolfe-Powell (WWP) line search. The assumption is bounded below optimization problems with the Lipschitz continuous gradient. The new parameter obtains global convergence properties when the WWP line search is used. The descent condition is established without using any line search. The performance of the proposed CG method is tested by obtaining some unconstrained optimization problems from the CUTEst library. Testing results show that the proposed version of the CG method outperforms CG-DESCENT version 5.3 in terms of CPU time, function evaluations, gradient evaluations and number of iterations.}, journal = {Journal of Computer Science}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
