Journal Club – 101 Topics in ML, Control & Optimization

Introduction Optimization has been playing a critical role in modern machine learning, leading to its significantly successful applications in many different fields. Researchers and practitioners typically spend less time investigating optimizers when they do the model training, mostly following some empirical rules or recommendations from the community. In this event, we will go relatively deeper […]
