DS-200 · Question #55

Under what two conditions does stochastic gradient descent outperform 2nd-order optimization techniques such as iteratively reweighted least squares?

The correct answer is A. When the volume of input data is so large and diverse that a 2nd-order optimization technique B. When the model's estimates must be updated in real-time in order to account for. See the full explanation below for the reasoning.

Options

  • AWhen the volume of input data is so large and diverse that a 2nd-order optimization technique
  • BWhen the model's estimates must be updated in real-time in order to account for
  • CWhen the input data can easily fit into memory on a single machine, but we want to calculate
  • DWhen we are required to find the parameters that return the optimal value of the objective
