An Adagrad-inspired class of algorithms for smooth unconstrained optimization is presented in which the objective function is never evaluated and yet the gradient norms decrease at least as fast as O(1/\sqrt{k+1}) while second-order optimality measures converge to zero at least as fast as O(1/(k+1)^{1/3}). This latter rate of convergence is shown to be essentially sharp … Read more
A class of algorithms for unconstrained nonconvex optimization is considered where the value of the objective function is never computed. The class contains a deterministic version of the first-order Adagrad method typically used for minimization of noisy function, but also allows the use of second-order information when available. The rate of convergence of methods in … Read more
