Chapter 4: Unconstrained Optimization - McMaster University
www.ece.mcmaster.ca5 Steepest Ascent (Descent) Method Idea: starting from an initial point, find the function maximum (minimum) along the steepest direction so that shortest searching time is required. Steepest direction: directional derivative is maximum in that direction — gradi-ent direction. f() = ¢µ + @f @y ¢ =[] ¢]

(c) Which would take more work (in the physics sense): walking 3 blocks south from Laguna and Jackson or 1 block west from Clay and Franklin? 2. Equipotentials, Electric Fields and Charge
Levenberg–Marquardt Training
www.eng.auburn.eduWith the definition of gradient g in (12.3), the update rule of the steepest descent algorithm could be written as w w k k+1 = −αg k (12.4) where α is the learning constant (step size). The training process of the steepest descent algorithm is asymptotic convergence. Around the solu-
Logistic regression - University of California, San Diego
vulstats.ucsd.edulogistic regression curve is steepest at this halfway point. The function logit−1(x)= ex 1+ex transforms continuous values to the range (0,1), which is necessary, since probabilities must be between 0 and 1. This is illustrated for the election example in Figure 5.1 and more theoretically in Figure 5.2. Equivalently, model (5.1) can be ...
The Steepest Descent Algorithm for Unconstrained ...
ocw.mit.eduIf x =¯x is a given point, f(x) can be approxi-mated by its linear expansion f(¯x+ d) ≈ f(¯x)+∇f(¯x)T d if d “small”, i.e., if d is small. Now notice that if the approximation in the above expression is good, then we want to choose d so that the inner product ∇f(¯x)T d is as small as possible. Let us normalize d so that d =1.

A Brief Description of the Levenberg-Marquardt Algorithm ...
users.ics.forth.grthe algorithm behaves like a steepest descent method: slow, but guaranteed to 1. converge. When the current solution is close to the correct solution, it becomes a Gauss-Newton method. Next, a short description of the LM algorithm based on the material in [5] is supplied. Note, however, that a detailed analysis of the LM
