Minimizing finite sums with the stochastic average gradient

M Schmidt, N Le Roux, F Bach - Mathematical Programming, 2017 - Springer
We analyze the stochastic average gradient (SAG) method for optimizing the sum of a finite
number of smooth convex functions. Like stochastic gradient (SG) methods, the SAG …
