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 ...

Find out why backpropagation and gradient descent are key to prediction in machine learning, then get started with training a simple neural network using gradient descent and Java code.

In this course, you’ll learn theoretical foundations of optimization methods used for training deep machine learning models. Why does gradient descent work? Specifically, what can we guarantee about ...

Optimization methods for machine learning, including neural networks, typically use some form of gradient descent algorithm to drive the back propagation, often with a mechanism to help avoid ...
