Metric Perspective of Stochastic Optimizers

Date:

In this talk, I explain several major stochastic optimizers from the perspective of the metric, that is the definition of the parameter space of the model. This talk covers algorithms such as

  • Quasi-Newton Method Type
    • Finite-Difference Method: SGD-QN, AdaDelta, VSGD
    • Extended Gauss-Newton: KSD, SMD, HF
    • LBFGS: Stochastic LBFGS, RES
  • Natural Gradient Type: Natural Gradient, TONGA
  • Root Mean Square Type: AdaGrad, RMSProp, Adam
