Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD): This variant computes the gradient and updates the model
parameters using a random subset (mini-batch) of the training data. It helps speed up training by
avoiding the need to compute gradients for the entire dataset.
Adam (Adaptive Moment Estimation): Adam combines the benefits of momentum-based
gradient descent, Adagrad, and RMSprop. It adapts the learning rate for each parameter based on
the moving average of gradients and squared gradients, leading to faster convergence and better
performance on non-convex optimization problems.
RMSprop (Root Mean Square Propagation): RMSprop adjusts the learning rate for each
parameter based on the moving average of squared gradients. It helps prevent the learning rate
from becoming too large and stabilizes training.
The learning rate controls how quickly a model updates its parameters during training. Choosing
an appropriate learning rate is crucial for good model performance.
Learning Rate Schedulers dynamically adjust the learning rate during training. Common
schedules include:
Constant Learning Rate: The learning rate remains fixed throughout training.
Step Decay: The learning rate decreases by a fixed factor after a certain number of epochs.
Exponential Decay: The learning rate decreases exponentially over time.
Cosine Annealing: The learning rate follows a cosine curve, gradually decreasing and then
increasing.
Warmup: Initially, the learning rate is low and gradually increases to the desired value.
Remember that choosing the right combination of these techniques depends on your specific problem and

dataset. Experimentation and tuning are essential to find the optimal settings for your neural network.
