UCL x DeepMind Deep Learning Lecture Series - Optimization for ML

Science & Technology

UCL x DeepMind Deep Learning Lecture Series - Optimization for Machine Learning by James Martens

UCL Centre for AI is partnering with DeepMind to deliver a Deep Learning Lecture Series.

Optimization methods are the engines underlying neural networks that enable them to learn from data. In this lecture we will cover the fundamentals of gradient-based optimization methods, and their application to training neural networks. Major topics include gradient descent, momentum methods, 2nd-order methods, and stochastic methods. We will analyze these methods through the interpretive framework of local 2nd-order approximations.
