Gradient-Based Algorithm for Tracking the Activity of Neural Network Weights Changing.

The research conducted in this paper is in the field of machine learning. The main object of the research is the learning process of an artificial neural network in order to increase its efficiency. The algorithm based on the analysis of retrospective learning data. The dynamics of changes in the values of the weights of an artificial neural network during training is an important indicator of training efficiency. The algorithm proposed in this work is based on changing the weight gradients values. Changing of the gradients weights makes it possible to understand how actively the network weights change during training. This knowledge helps to diagnose the training process and makes an adjusting the training parameters. The results of the algorithm can be used to train an artificial neural network. The network will help to determine the set of measures (actions) needed to optimize the learning process by the algorithm results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
