We explore active mini-batch selection using repulsive point processes for stochastic gradient descent (SGD). Our approach simultaneously introduces active bias and leads to stochastic gradients with lower variance. We show theoretically and empirically that our approach improves over standard SGD both in terms of convergence speed as well as final model performance.
The International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML) is the premier gathering of professionals dedicated to the advancement of the branch of artificial intelligence known as machine learning. ICML is globally renowned for presenting and publishing cutting-edge research on all aspects of machine learning used in closely related areas like artificial intelligence, statistics and data science, as well as important application areas such as machine vision, computational biology, speech recognition, and robotics. ICML is one of the fastest growing artificial intelligence conferences in the world. Participants at ICML span a wide range of backgrounds, from academic and industrial researchers, to entrepreneurs and engineers, to graduate students and postdocs.
