[docs]class AdagradOptimizer(GradientDescentOptimizer): r"""Gradient-descent optimizer with past-gradient-dependent learning rate in each dimension. Adagrad adjusts the learning rate for each parameter :math:`x_i` in :math:`x` based on past gradients. We therefore have to consider each parameter update individually, .. math:: x^{(t+1)}_i = x^{(t)}_i - \eta_i^{(t+1)} \partial_{w_i} f(x^{(t)}), where the gradient is replaced by a (scalar) partial derivative. The learning rate in step :math:`t` is given by .. math:: \eta_i^{(t+1)} = \frac{ \eta_{\mathrm{init}} }{ \sqrt{a_i^{(t+1)} + \epsilon } }, ~~~ a_i^{(t+1)} = \sum_{k=1}^t (\partial_{x_i} f(x^{(k)}))^2. The offset :math:`\epsilon` avoids division by zero. :math:`\eta` is the step size, a user defined parameter. Args: stepsize (float): the user-defined hyperparameter :math:`\eta` eps (float): offset :math:`\epsilon` added for numerical stability .. note:: When using ``torch``, ``tensorflow`` or ``jax`` interfaces, refer to :doc:`Gradients and training </introduction/interfaces>` for suitable optimizers.
