Proximal policy optimization (PPO) is a reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm for training an intelligent agent. Specifically, it is a policy gradient method, often used for deep RL when the policy network is very large. The predecessor to PPO, Trust Region Policy Optimization (TRPO), was published in 2015.
Evolutionary optimization has been used in hyperparameter optimization for statistical machine learning algorithms, [10] automated machine learning, typical neural network [25] and deep neural network architecture search, [26] [27] as well as training of the weights in deep neural networks. [28]

It is particularly useful in machine learning for minimizing the cost or loss function. [1] Gradient descent should not be confused with local search algorithms, although both are iterative methods for optimization. Gradient descent is generally attributed to Augustin-Louis Cauchy, who first suggested it in 1847. [2]
AdaGrad (for adaptive gradient algorithm) is a modified stochastic gradient descent algorithm with per-parameter learning rate, first published in 2011. [38] Informally, this increases the learning rate for sparser parameters [clarification needed] and decreases the learning rate for ones that are less sparse. This strategy often improves ...
Starting around 2012, the so-called deep learning revolution led to an increased interest in using deep neural networks as function approximators across a variety of domains. This led to a renewed interest in researchers using deep neural networks to learn the policy, value, and/or Q functions present in existing reinforcement learning algorithms.
Bayesian optimization of a function (black) with Gaussian processes (purple). Three acquisition functions (blue) are shown at the bottom. [8]Bayesian optimization is typically used on problems of the form (), where is a set of points, , which rely upon less (or equal to) than 20 dimensions (,), and whose membership can easily be evaluated.
Limited-memory BFGS (L-BFGS or LM-BFGS) is an optimization algorithm in the family of quasi-Newton methods that approximates the Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno algorithm (BFGS) using a limited amount of computer memory. [1] It is a popular algorithm for parameter estimation in machine learning.
