Feb 16, 2021 at 22:47 | comment | added | user20160 | @AlwaysLearning It's not always good, but the probability that it will be can increase with network size. Please have a look at the paper I mentioned. | |
Feb 16, 2021 at 12:07 | comment | added | AlwaysLearning | My question is: how come this local minimum is always good in terms of fitting the training data. (given a reasonable depth and size of the network) | |
Feb 16, 2021 at 2:36 | comment | added | user20160 | @AlwaysLearning Gradient-based optimization algorithms can indeed get stuck in local minima. The point is that this is ok if the local minimum you get stuck in is a good one which, in machine learning tasks, means the corresponding parameters give good generalization performance. | |
Feb 15, 2021 at 19:52 | comment | added | AlwaysLearning | Then why does backpropagation work and not get stuck in a local minimum? | |
