In this paper, we suggest a new conjugate gradient method for unconstrained optimization by using homotopy theory. Our suggestion algorithm satisfies the conjugacy and descent conditions. Numerical result shows that our new algorithm is better than the standard CG algorithm with respect to the NOI and NOF.
