SDE Continuous Optimization Limit
Chapter 19: Stochastic Differential Equations — SDEs as Limits of Optimization Algorithms
From the book
Chapter 19: Stochastic Differential Equations. In the chapter mind map this icon labels SDEs as Limits of Optim Algos. The discussion below is excerpted and lightly edited from § SDEs as Limits of Optimization Algorithms in Mathematics for AI and Machine Learning.
Itô calculus, SDEs, and continuous-time stochastic processes
What this drawing shows
What you see. Green discrete optimization steps fixed; purple continuous SDE path grows from the last iterate toward the continuous-time limit.
In the mind map. Chapter 19 — SDEs as Limits of Optim Algos. See From the book above for definitions, figures, and worked examples.
