Machine Learning - Dynamical, Statistical, and Economic Perspectives

Explore the decision-making aspects of machine learning in this 54-minute conference talk by Michael I. Jordan from the University of California, Berkeley. Delve into statistical challenges associated with multiple decision-making and economic issues related to scarcity and competition in learning systems. Examine algorithmic problems using recent work on continuous-time dynamical systems perspectives for optimization and diffusion. Cover topics such as gradient descent, proof techniques, lower bounds, unconstrained convex optimization, Lagrangian optimization, symplectic integration, conservative systems, geometry, structure, and dissipative cases. Gain insights into open problems, theorems, and dynamical systems, concluding with a summary and Q&A session.
