Descent Methods for Tuning Parameter Refinement
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper addresses multidimensional tuning parameter selection in the context of “train-validate-test” and K-fold cross validation. A coarse grid search over tuning parameter space is used to initialize a descent method which then jointly optimizes over variables and tuning parameters. We study four regularized regression methods and develop the update equations for the corresponding descent algorithms. Experiments on both simulated and real-world datasets show that the method results in significant tuning parameter refinement.

A Free Line Search Steepest Descent Method for Solving Unconstrained Optimization Problems
In this paper, we solve unconstrained optimization problem using a free line search steepest descent method. First, we propose a double parameter scaled quasi Newton formula for calculating an approximation of the Hessian matrix. The approximation obtained from this formula is a positive definite matrix that is satisfied in the standard secant relation. We also show that the largest eigen value...
متن کاملEfficient and Robust Parameter Tuning for Heuristic Algorithms
The main advantage of heuristic or metaheuristic algorithms compared to exact optimization methods is their ability in handling large-scale instances within a reasonable time, albeit at the expense of losing a guarantee for achieving the optimal solution. Therefore, metaheuristic techniques are appropriate choices for solving NP-hard problems to near optimality. Since the parameters of heuristi...

We learn recurrent neural network optimizers trained on simple synthetic functions by gradient descent. We show that these learned optimizers exhibit a remarkable degree of transfer in that they can be used to efficiently optimize a broad range of derivative-free black-box functions, including Gaussian process bandits, simple control objectives, global optimization benchmarks and hyper-paramete...

متن کاملHybrid Algorithm for Fuzzy Model Parameter Estimation based on Genetic Algorithm and Derivative based Methods
Hybrid method for estimation of fuzzy model parameters is presented. The main idea of the method is to apply gradient descent method or Kalman filter as a mutation operator of genetic algorithm for estimation of antecedent parameters of fuzzy “IF-THEN” rules. Thus, part of the individuals in the population mutate by means of gradient descent method or Kalman filter, the others mutate in an ordi...
