Answer» What is Stochastic Gradient Langevin Dynamics mean? Stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD) is an optimization technique composed of characteristics from Stochastic gradient descent, a Robbins–Monro optimization algorithm, and Langevin dynamics, a mathematical extension of molecular dynamics models. Like stochastic gradient descent, SGLD is an iterative optimization algorithm which introduces additional noise to the stochastic gradient estimator used in SGD to optimize a differentiable objective function. Unlike traditional SGD, SGLD can be used for Bayesian learning, since the method produces samples from a posterior distribution of parameters based on available data. First described by Welling and Teh in 2011, the method has applications in many contexts which require optimization, and is most notably applied in machine learning problems. reference |
