In this note, by combining the nice numerical performance of PR and HS methods with the global convergence property of the class of conjugate gradient methods presented by HU and STOREY(1991), a class of new restarting conjugate gradient methods is presented.

Firstly, it is shown that, using reverse modulus of continuity function and forcing function, the new method for solving unconstrained optimization can work for a continously dif ferentiable function with Curry-Altman's step size rule and a bounded level set. Secondly, by using comparing technique, some general convergence properties of the new method with other kind of step size rule are established.

In this note, conditions are given on the parameter in the conjugate gradient directions to ensure the descent property of the search directions.
