Python code for visualizing Gradient Descent optimization paths with animated contours. Demonstrates two strategies: fixed and optimal step sizes. Includes Fibonacci search for step size and data ...

The Instagram algorithm remains mysterious for many of the platform’s users. So what does “the Instagram algorithm” even mean, really? And how much control does IG actually have over what we see on ...

Implementing the gradient descent algorithm from scratch to perform univariate linear regression to analyze the profit made by a bike sharing company.

Abstract: Aitken gradient descent (AGD) algorithm takes some advantages over the standard gradient descent and Newton methods: 1) can achieve at least quadratic convergence in general; 2) does not ...

In this paper, we extend a descent algorithm without line search for solving unconstrained optimization problems. Under mild conditions, its global convergence is established. Further, we generalize ...

Abstract: This paper describes techniques to implement gradient-descent-based machine learning algorithms on crossbar arrays made of memristors or other analog memory devices. We introduce the ...
