Frank McQuillan updated MADLIB-1272: ------------------------------------ Priority: Minor (was: Major) > Simplify Nesterov by performing velocity update in previous iteration > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MADLIB-1272 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-1272 > Project: Apache MADlib > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Module: Neural Networks > Reporter: Rahul Iyer > Assignee: Rahul Iyer > Priority: Minor > Fix For: v1.15.1 > > > Momentum updates are complicated due to Nesterov requiring an initial update > before gradient calculations. There is, however, a different form of the > Nesterov update that can be cleanly performed after the regular update, > simplifying the code. This allows performing the gradient calculations before > any update - with or without Nesterov. > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
