KotlinConf 2019: Gradient Descent: The Ultimate Optimizer by Erik Meijer

Recording brought to you by American Express. https://americanexpress.io/kotlin-jobs Working with any gradient-based machine learning algorithm requires the tedious task of tuning its hyper-parameters, such as the learning rate. There exist more advanced techniques for automated hyper-parameter optimization, but they themselves introduce even more hyper-parameters to control the optimization process. We propose to learn the hyper-parameters by gradient descent, and furthermore to learn the hyper-hyper-parameters by gradient descent as well, and so on. As these towers of optimizers grow, they become significantly less sensitive to the choice of top-level hyper-parameters, hence decreasing the burden on the user to search for optimal values. The best of all however, is that we illustrate all of this with sweet & simple Kotlin code that you could have easily written yourself.

He is perhaps best known for his work on, amongst others, the Haskell, C#, Visual Basic, and Dart programming languages, as well as for his contributions to LINQ and the Reactive Framework (Rx). Most recently he is on a quest to make uncertainty a first-class citizen in mainstream programming languages
