Agradientdescent, whatever the starting point, computes in real-time the least dangerous trajectory.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Structures produced by learning are compared against those found by a standardgradientdescentoptimization, both as individual modules and then as a composite structure.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In such cases, the use of the standardgradientdescentmethod will result in poor performance.
From theCambridge English Corpus
We take backpropagation as representative ofgradientdescentalgorithms, themselves a method of achieving error-driven learning.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Chapters 4 and 5 move on to training algorithms and related issues, detailing the perceptron and progressing on togradientdescent.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Also,gradientdescentmethods tend to complete their tasks slowly, as many "unnecessary" controls are generated.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Agradientdescent, from any starting point can be computed in realtime.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In contrast to these models, training occurs by appending instances to memory rather than by applying a learning algorithm like thegradientdescentoptimization procedure.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The connection weights between the neurons of adjacent layers are modified repeatedly based on thegradientdescentoptimization criteria to minimize the above squared error.
From theCambridge English Corpus
One of the algorithms suggested as an alternative to switch to in the above isgradientdescent.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The figure also indicates that thegradientdescentmethod has better performance in terms of reducing errors.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The features, however, may also be the raw pixel intensities or even labels produced by a method such as template matching orgradientdescent, thereby yielding a hybrid strategy.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The momentum term reduces the effects of the local minima of the error surface and accelerates thegradientdescentto the global minimum of the error surface.
