Gradient Span Algorithms Show Predictable Progress in High-Dimensional ML

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have demonstrated that 'gradient span algorithms' exhibit predictable behavior on scaled Gaussian random functions in high dimensions. This finding offers a theoretical explanation for the consistent cost curves observed across multiple training runs of large machine learning models, even with random initialization on complex landscapes. The predictable progress phenomenon is already leveraged by the automated machine learning (AutoML) community, reducing the need for repeated training with identical hyperparameters. AI

IMPACT Provides a theoretical basis for the efficiency of AutoML, potentially streamlining model development.

    Gradient Span Algorithms Make Predictable Progress in High Dimension

    arXiv:2410.09973v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We prove that all 'gradient span algorithms' have asymptotically deterministic behavior on scaled Gaussian random functions as the dimension tends to infinity. This is a functional generalization of similar results for random qu…
