Slow Learners are Fast

چکیده
Online learning algorithms have impressive convergence properties when it comes to risk minimization and convex games on very large problems. However, they are inherently sequential in their design which prevents them from taking advantage of modern multi-core architectures. In this paper we prove that online learning with delayed updates converges well, thereby facilitating parallel online learning.

An ERP study on initial second language vocabulary learning.
This study examined the very initial phases of orthographic and semantic acquisition in monolingual native English speakers learning Chinese words under controlled laboratory conditions. Participants engaged in 10 sessions of vocabulary learning, four of which were used to obtain ERPs. Performance in behavioral tests improved over sessions, and these data were used to define fast and slow learn...
متن کاملsgk, a primary glucocorticoid-induced gene, facilitates memory consolidation of spatial learning in rats.
By using differential display PCR, we have identified 98 cDNA fragments from the rat dorsal hippocampus that are expressed differentially between the fast learners and slow learners in the water maze learning task. One of these cDNA fragments encodes the rat serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase (sgk) gene. Northern blot analysis revealed that the sgk mRNA level was approximately 4-fold hi...
متن کاملThe effect of ontime intervention on entering elementary school in slow learners
Slow learners are progressing slower than their peers in their academic performance and need a lot of practice and repetition in teaching their concepts, so the purpose of this study is the effect of teaching the necessary skills to enter primary school in the form of early intervention educational package for slow learner beginners in the academic year of 2017-2018. Method: This quasi-expe...
متن کاملNear-Optimal Controls of a Fuel Cell Coupled with Reformer using Singular Perturbation methods
A singularly perturbed model is proposed for a system comprised of a PEM Fuel Cell(PEM-FC) with Natural Gas Hydrogen Reformer (NG-HR). This eighteenth order system is decomposedinto slow and fast lower order subsystems using singular perturbation techniques that provides tools forseparation and order reduction. Then, three different types of controllers, namely an optimal full-order,a near-opti...
متن کاملLearner Achievement and Attitudes under Different Paces of Transitioning to Independent Problem Solving
This study examined the effect of the pace of transitioning from worked examples to independent problem solving for students with three different levels of prior knowledge. Three paces of transitioning were examined: immediate transitioning, fast fading, and slow fading. The study was conducted with engineering college freshmen in the engineering knowledge domain of introductory electrical circ...
متن کاملRole of slow pathway after nodal fast pathway ablation on the basic and rate- dependent properties of the isolated rabbit atrioventricularNode
Introduction : The aim of this study is to obtain new insight into possible relation between functional properties of slow concealed pathway and rate-dependent properties of AV-node. Methods : Rate-dependent nodal properties of recovery, facilitation, and fatigue were characterized by stimulation protocols in one groups of (N=7) isolated superfused AV-Nodal rabbits. Small miniature lesions ...
