Adam#
Short for Adaptive Moment Estimation, the Adam Optimizer combines both Momentum and RMS properties. In addition to storing an exponentially decaying average of past squared gradients like RMSprop, Adam also keeps an exponentially decaying average of past gradients, similar to Momentum. Whereas Momentum can be seen as a ball running down a slope, Adam behaves like a heavy ball with friction.
Parameters#
# | Name | Default | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | rate | 0.001 | float | The learning rate that controls the global step size. |
2 | momentumDecay | 0.1 | float | The decay rate of the accumulated velocity. |
3 | normDecay | 0.001 | float | The decay rate of the rms property. |
Example#
use Rubix\ML\NeuralNet\Optimizers\Adam;
$optimizer = new Adam(0.0001, 0.1, 0.001);
