Compare Stochastic learning strategies for MLPClassifierΒΆ
This example visualizes some training loss curves for different stochastic learning strategies, including SGD and Adam. Because of time-constraints, we use several small datasets, for which L-BFGS might be more suitable. The general trend shown in these examples seems to carry over to larger datasets, however.
Note that those results can be highly dependent on the value of
learning_rate_init.
