7 years ago - The Gradient descent should just be brushed upon but essentially the reasoning should not be centered upon it. Useful though for explaining tied parameters.
- At the moment, focus on distributed versions, however could make the point about robustness to noise even in very simple non-parallel environment. This can just be quoted (serial noisy updates following the same kind of iterations or maybe appendix with all variants considered... not sure this is hugely interesting but a graph with comparison to STAN would be useful).
