contents This paper introduces a modified Byrd-Omojokun (BO) trust region algorithm to address the challenges posed by noisy function and gradient evaluations. The original BO method was designed to solve equality constrained problems and it forms the backbone of some interior point methods for general large-scale constrained optimization. A key strength of the BO method is its robustness in handling problems with rank-deficient constraint Jacobians. The algorithm proposed in this paper introduces a new criterion for accepting a step and for updating the trust region that makes use of an estimate in the noise in the problem. The analysis presented here gives conditions under which the iterates converge to regions of stationary points of the problem, determined by the level of noise. This analysis is more complex than for line search methods because the trust region carries (noisy) information from previous iterates. Numerical tests illustrate the practical performance of the algorithm.
