  2. Gradient descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient_descent

    Gradient descent is a method for unconstrained mathematical optimization. It is a first-order iterative algorithm for minimizing a differentiable multivariate function. The idea is to take repeated steps in the opposite direction of the gradient (or approximate gradient) of the function at the current point, because this is the direction of ...

  3. Stochastic gradient descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_gradient_descent

    Stochastic gradient descent competes with the L-BFGS algorithm, [citation needed] which is also widely used. Stochastic gradient descent has been used since at least 1960 for training linear regression models, originally under the name ADALINE. [24] Another stochastic gradient descent algorithm is the least mean squares (LMS) adaptive filter.

  4. Learning rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_rate

    In machine learning and statistics, the learning rate is a tuning parameter in an optimization algorithm that determines the step size at each iteration while moving toward a minimum of a loss function. [1] Since it influences to what extent newly acquired information overrides old information, it metaphorically represents the speed at which a ...

  5. Mathematics of artificial neural networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_artificial...

    Multiply the weight's output delta and input activation to find the gradient of the weight. Subtract the ratio (percentage) of the weight's gradient from the weight. The learning rate is the ratio (percentage) that influences the speed and quality of learning. The greater the ratio, the faster the neuron trains, but the lower the ratio, the ...

  6. Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenberg–Marquardt...

    Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm. In mathematics and computing, the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm (LMA or just LM), also known as the damped least-squares (DLS) method, is used to solve non-linear least squares problems. These minimization problems arise especially in least squares curve fitting. The LMA interpolates between the Gauss–Newton ...

  7. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2). In mathematics, the conjugate gradient method is an algorithm for the numerical solution of particular systems of linear equations, namely those whose matrix is positive-semidefinite.

  8. Independent component analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_component_analysis

    e. In signal processing, independent component analysis (ICA) is a computational method for separating a multivariate signal into additive subcomponents. This is done by assuming that at most one subcomponent is Gaussian and that the subcomponents are statistically independent from each other. [1]

  9. Convex optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_optimization

    In the standard form it is possible to assume, without loss of generality, that the objective function f is a linear function.This is because any program with a general objective can be transformed into a program with a linear objective by adding a single variable t and a single constraint, as follows: [9]: 1.4
