Gradient descent.
33
Fill in the blank: The learning rate controls the magnitude of parameter updates at each _______.
[iteration]
34
What is gradient descent?
An iterative approach for optimizing neural networks and ML algorithms by calculating the rate of error change (gradient) associated with input variables.
