In the first part of t his talk\, I will focus on general deep learning problems and I will intro duce a new family of critical gradient-based optimizers. Such optimizers r etain a limited view of their gradient history in their internal memory an d scale well to large real-life datasets. Our experiments show that the pr oposed memory-augmented extensions of standard optimizers enjoy accelerate d convergence and… DTSTART;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240226T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Vancouver:20240226T110000 LAST-MODIFIED:20240221T225525Z LOCATION:UBC Vancouver Campus\, ICCS X836 SUMMARY:Memory-augmented Optimizers for Deep Learning and Lifelong Learning - Sarath Chandar\, Assistant Professor\, Polytechnique Montreal TRANSP:OPAQUE URL:https://caida.ubc.ca/event/memory-augmented-optimizers-deep-learning-an d-lifelong-learning-sarath-chandar-assistant END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
