How Gradient Descent Works. Simple Explanation

Video explain what is gradient descent and how gradient descent works with a simple example. Basic intuition and explanation are revealed in the video.The content is:

0:09 - What is Gradient Descent.
0:30 - Example
0:39 - Step no. 1. Start with a random point and find the gradient (derivative) of the given function.
1:28 - Step no. 2. Set learning rate to get know how big should be a step to move forward on gradient descent to the opposite direction.
1:47 - Step no. 3. Perform calculations on iterations.
1:58 - Initialize parameters.
2:20 - calculations on the 1st iteration.
3:20 - calculations on the 2nd iteration.
4:26 - till we reach global or local minimum.

I hope that this explanation on how gradient descent works is useful for beginners of deep learning or good reminder for machine learning / deep learning experts.

Sometimes we just need two loops to understand a whole. Thank you!

[lovekildetoft]

All other videos on gradient descent are atleast 20 minutes long. This one is five, and made me understand more than any of those videos. Thank you!

[uncoded]

Thank you! Many hours of trying to understand gradient decent, now I finally get it, thanks to this video. Thank you!

[anamikabhowmick]

This is one of the best and easiest way to learn and understand gradient descent, thank you so much for this

[impzhu]

That’s the way to explain a concept! Example with detailed steps. Thank you so much!

[riki]

Thank you for such a clear explanation. Short and precise. no unnecessary talk.

[hemantsah]

It is easy... spent my 2 days on learning gradient descent.... then I came to your video... Thanks bro

[yaminikommi]

We can take any number as intial parameters and learning rate

[wtry]

It's very short and very useful.. I get clarity what I was looking for.
Thanks once again.

Oh my god, you are excellent. You make the difference on YouTube. Thank you so much. 🎉🙏👏🙌👌👍✌🏼

[glenfernandes]

how do you know, how many iterations to run before reaching the global/local minimum, what if it reaches the minimum and starts climbing on the other side ?

[Elementiah]

Thank you so much for this! This is the perfect explanation! 😄

[Alex-pdxc]

wow dude, very clearly explained and you made it simple for me to understand. cheers man

[Ziad-Ahmed-Mohamed]

2 hours in DL course i didnt get it
5 min made my day this is how actually learning should be <3
thanks brother 💗

[phaniraju]

I bow to your for this great clarification ..loved it

[sukanya]

Love this video ❤️, Very simple and precise! Thank you !

[muhammadhashir]

Thank you so much your work was practical and I loved it alot and underestood gradient descent. Before that I spent lots of time but didn't understood it properly

[TingBie]

Thanks for this example, simple and spot-on!
