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

In this paper, we study an inexact steepest descent method, with Armijo's rule, for multicriteria optimization. The sequence generated by the method is guaranteed to be well-defined. Assuming quasi-convexity of the multicriteria function we prove full convergence of the sequence to a critical Pareto point. As an application, this paper offers a model of self regulation in Psychology, using a recent variational rationality approach.
