Training more effective learned optimizers, and using them to train themselves (Paper Explained)

#ai #research #optimization Optimization is still the domain of hand-crafted, simple algorithms. An ML engineer not only has to pick a suitable one for their problem but also often do grid-search over various hyper-parameters. This paper proposes to learn a single, unified optimization algorithm, given not by an equation, but by an LSTM-based neural network, to act as an optimizer for any deep learning problem, and ultimately to optimize itself.

In this work we focus on general-purpose learned optimizers capable of training a wide variety of problems with no user-specified hyperparameters. We introduce a new, neural network parameterized, hierarchical optimizer with access to additional features such as validation loss to enable automatic regularization. Most learned optimizers have been trained on only a single task, or a small number of tasks. We train our optimizers on thousands of tasks, making use of orders of magnitude more compute, resulting in optimizers that generalize better to unseen tasks. The learned optimizers not only perform well, but learn behaviors that are distinct from existing first order optimizers. For instance, they generate update steps that have implicit regularization and adapt as the problem hyperparameters (e.g. batch size) or architecture (e.g. neural network width) change. Finally, these learned optimizers show evidence of being useful for out of distribution tasks such as training themselves from scratch. Authors: Luke Metz, Niru Maheswaranathan, C.
