Parallel Methods for Neuron Network Haihao Lu andYuanchu Dang
Machine Learning andArtificial Neuron Network
Problem of Interest: ANN W is the weight b is the bias is activation function x is feature y is label l is loss function
Drawback of SGD SGD is a first-order method,thus it converges slow. SGD suffers from vanishing gradient problem Most importantly,it is hard to parallelize SGD
Equivalent Problem Relaxed Problem
Alternating Minimization W-update z-update one or more steps of damped Newton cheap to compute Hessian parallel computing
RNN Equivalent Problem Relaxed Problem
With L_2 Regulation W-update z-update one or more steps of damped Newton cheap to compute Hessian parallel computing
