摘要

Overfitting and slow convergence are common problems when using the gradient descent method in neural network training. We use regularization and momentum terms, respectively, to reduce these negative phenomena. In this paper, we consider the convergence of the gradient descent method with smoothing L0 regularization and an adaptive momentum term. The objective function for normal L0 regularization is the sum of a function that is not convex, smooth, or Lipschitz. This makes the error function and the norm of the gradient oscillate. This impediment prevents neural networks from achieving optimal measurement rates for application verification. However, we can address the deficiency of the normal L0 regularization term by using the smoothing approximation techniques. This paper presents the results of weak convergence for smooth L0 regularization using the adaptive momentum method. Furthermore, we have proven the strong convergence results of the theorems. Simulations based on three learning problems—parity problems, function approximation problems, and classification tasks—illustrate the viability of the suggested approach under these circumstances. The suggested approach assumes the momentum coefficient, regularization parameter, and learning rate to be constants. We selected these problems because their unique error surfaces provide an appropriate setting for evaluating the efficacy of the suggested approach. Simulation examples demonstrate the superiority of the suggested algorithm and bolster the theoretical analysis.
