Learning rate adaptive stochastic gradient descent optimization methods: numerical simulations for deep learning methods for partial differential equations and convergence analyses

arXiv:2406. 14340v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The standard stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimization method, as well as adaptive methods such as the Adam optimizer fail to converge if the learning rates do not converge to zero (particularly, in the situation of constant learning rates).

Derivation of effective gradient flow equations and dynamical truncation of training data in Deep Learning

arXiv:2501. 07400v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We derive explicit equations governing the cumulative biases and weights in Deep Learning with ReLU activation function, based on gradient descent for the Euclidean loss in the input layer, and under the assumption that the weights are, in a precise sense, adapted to the coordinate system distinguished by the activations.
