To machine learning pioneer Terry Sejnowski, the mathematical technique called stochastic gradient descent is the “secret sauce” of deep learning, and most people don’t actually grasp its ...

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research explains stochastic gradient descent (SGD) neural network training, specifically implementing a bio-inspired optimization technique called differential ...

Dr. James McCaffrey presents a complete end-to-end demonstration of the kernel ridge regression technique to predict a single ...

In this work, a gradient method with momentum for BP neural networks is considered. The momentum coefficient is chosen in an adaptive manner to accelerate and stabilize the learning procedure of the ...
