Adam is an optimization algorithm used in machine learning, particularly in deep learning and neural networks, that updates model parameters using gradients of the loss function. It enhances stochastic gradient descent by incorporating momentum and adaptive learning rates, which help improve convergence speed and stability. While Adam is efficient and effective for handling sparse gradients, it requires more memory and can be sensitive to hyperparameter choices.

Adam (Adaptive Moment Estimation) is an optimization algorithm used to update
the parameters of a machine learning model during training. It is a popular
algorithm used in deep learning and neural networks. ADAM OPTIMIZATION Adam is an extension of the stochastic gradient descent (SGD) algorithm, which is a method to optimize the parameters of a model by updating them in the direction of the negative gradient of the loss function. The Adam algorithm, like SGD, uses the gradients of the loss function concerning the model parameters to update the parameters. In addition, it also incorporates the concept of "momentum" and "adaptive learning rates" to improve the optimization process. The "momentum" term in Adam is similar to the momentum term used in other optimization algorithms like SGD with momentum. It helps the optimizer to "remember" the direction of the previous update and continue moving in that direction, which can help the optimizer to converge faster. The "adaptive learning rates" term in Adam adapts the learning rate for each parameter based on the historical gradient information. This allows the optimizer to adjust the learning rate for each parameter individually so that the optimizer can converge faster and with more stability. Adam is widely used in deep learning because it is computationally efficient and can handle sparse gradients and noisy optimization landscapes. But it requires more memory to store the historical gradient information, and it may be sensitive to the choice of hyperparameters, such as the initial learning rate.
