The self regulation problem as an inexact steepest descent method for multicriteria optimization

In this paper we study an inexact steepest descent method for multicriteria optimization whose step-size comes with Armijo’s rule. We show that this method is well-defined. Moreover, by assuming the quasi-convexity of the multicriteria function, we prove full convergence of any generated sequence to a Pareto critical point. As an application, we offer a model for the Psychology’s self regulation problem, using a recent variational rationality approach.
