Math and science::INF ML AI Adam optimizer Adam combines momentum and RMSProp into a single optimizer. Momentum The update step is not the gradient, but the exponential moving average of the gradient. This smooths out the gradients to maintain faster updates in an underlying direction. It's best to think of the parameters as being multi-dimensional vectors, as direction and magnitude of the gradients are typically what are manipulated by the optimizer. Read more...
