Understanding gradient descent
Gradient descent is a standard tool for optimizing complex functions iteratively within a computer program. Its goal is: given some arbitrary function, find a minumum. For some small subset of functions - those that are convex - there's just a single minumum which also happens to be global. For most realistic…
