提出超梯度下降法,可保证一维函数全局收敛。

Super Gradient Descent: Global Optimization requires Global Gradient

  • 引入全局梯度概念,突破传统算法易陷局部极小的瓶颈。
  • 对任意k-Lipschitz函数在闭区间上均能收敛到全局最小值。
  • 适合需要精确全局优化的机器学习场景,如线性搜索。

全局最小化是优化中的基础挑战,尤其在机器学习中,直接决定模型性能与收敛性。本文提出一种名为超梯度下降的新优化方法,专用于一维函数,可保证对任意定义在闭区间 [a, b] 上的 k-Lipschitz 函数,均收敛至全局最小值。该方法克服了传统优化算法常陷入局部极小的缺陷,首次引入全局梯度概念,为精确且有指导性的全局优化提供稳健解法。本工作填补了优化理论中的关键空白,在线搜索等具体优化问题中带来新见解与实际进展。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Global minimization is a fundamental challenge in optimization, especially in machine learning, where finding the global minimum of a function directly impacts model performance and convergence. This article introduces a novel optimization method that we called Super Gradient Descent, designed specifically for one-dimensional functions, guaranteeing convergence to the global minimum for any k-Lipschitz function defined on a closed interval [a, b]. Our approach addresses the limitations of traditional optimization algorithms, which often get trapped in local minima. In particular, we introduce the concept of global gradient which offers a robust solution for precise and well-guided global optimization. By focusing on the global minimization problem, this work bridges a critical gap in optimization theory, offering new insights and practical advancements in different optimization problems in particular Machine Learning problems like line search.
