This work introduces Adam, an algorithm for first-order gradient-based optimization of stochastic objective functions, based on adaptive estimates of lower-order moments, and provides a regret bound on the convergence rate that is comparable to the best known results under the online convex optimization framework.Abstract:
We introduce Adam, an algorithm for first-order gradient-based optimization of stochastic objective functions, based on adaptive estimates of lower-order moments. The method is straightforward to implement, is computationally efficient, has little memory requirements, is invariant to diagonal rescaling of the gradients, and is well suited for problems that are large in terms of data and/or parameters. The method is also appropriate for non-stationary objectives and problems with very noisy and/or sparse gradients. The hyper-parameters have intuitive interpretations and typically require little tuning. Some connections to related algorithms, on which Adam was inspired, are discussed. We also analyze the theoretical convergence properties of the algorithm and provide a regret bound on the convergence rate that is comparable to the best known results under the online convex optimization framework. Empirical results demonstrate that Adam works well in practice and compares favorably to other stochastic optimization methods. Finally, we discuss AdaMax, a variant of Adam based on the infinity norm.read more

Plug & Play Generative Networks: Conditional Iterative Generation of Images in Latent Space
TL;DR: This paper introduces an additional prior on the latent code, improving both sample quality and sample diversity, leading to a state-of-the-art generative model that produces high quality images at higher resolutions than previous generative models, and does so for all 1000 ImageNet categories.

TL;DR: This work constructs an evaluation set for XLU by extending the development and test sets of the Multi-Genre Natural Language Inference Corpus to 14 languages, including low-resource languages such as Swahili and Urdu and finds that XNLI represents a practical and challenging evaluation suite and that directly translating the test data yields the best performance among available baselines.

VIBE: Video Inference for Human Body Pose and Shape Estimation
TL;DR: This work defines a novel temporal network architecture with a self-attention mechanism and shows that adversarial training, at the sequence level, produces kinematically plausible motion sequences without in-the-wild ground-truth 3D labels.

Adaptive Subgradient Methods for Online Learning and Stochastic Optimization.
TL;DR: Adaptive subgradient methods as discussed by the authors dynamically incorporate knowledge of the geometry of the data observed in earlier iterations to perform more informative gradient-based learning, which allows us to find needles in haystacks in the form of very predictive but rarely seen features.
