AdaCubic: An Adaptive Cubic Regularization Optimizer for Deep Learning
A novel regularization technique, AdaCubic, is proposed that adapts the weight of the cubic term. The heart of AdaCubic is an auxiliary optimization problem with cubic constraints that dynamically adjusts the weight of the cubic term in Newton’s cubic regularized method. We use Hutchinson’s method to approximate the Hessian matrix, thereby reducing computational cost. We demonstrate that AdaCubic inherits the cubically regularized Newton method’s local convergence guarantees. Our experiments in Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Signal Processing […]
