The stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimization algorithm plays a central role in a series of machine learning applications. The scientific literature provides a vast amount of upper error bounds for the SGD method. Much less attention as been paid to proving lower error bounds for the SGD ...
Understanding Stochastic gradient descent SGD algorithm is an iterative method for optimizing an objective function, It is usually the loss function in machine learning models. The main idea behind it is to minimize this loss function by updating the model parameters iteratively. The “stochastic” as...
The focus of this chapter is to introduce the stochastic gradient descent family of online/adaptive algorithms in the framework of the squared error loss function. The gradient descent approach to optimization is presented and the stochastic approximation method is discussed. Then, the LMS algorithm ...

The stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm was used as the optimizer with momentum of 0.9 and a L2 weight decay parameter λ of 1 × 10−4. Data augmentation was used based on a random 32 × 32 crop from an image padded by four pixels on each side and with horizontal ...
5) Minibatch (stochastic) gradient descent v2 Lastly, the probably most common variant of stochastic gradient descent – likely due to superior empirical performance – is a mix between the stochastic gradient descent algorithm based on epochs (section 2) and minibatch gradient descent (section 4)...
