  interactive visualization of 5 popular gradient descent methods with step-by-step illustration and hyperparameter tuning UI

• VisualizeGradient

  1 0 4.7 Python

  Plot gradient map for 1d and 2d functions

Here is a project I created for myself (some time ago) to help visualize the gradient as a vector field.

Probably best used as a support material with someone teaching along the way the right mental picture one should have.

A great exercise is to have the student (or yourself) draw this visualization with pen and paper, (both in 2d and 3d), for various functions. And you can make the connection to the usual "tangent" on the curve of a derivative.

  1 11 - Python

  A small package used to visualize gradient descent of test functions.

I love creating things to solidify my intuition about topics. When I learned about gradient descent, I saw this repo and was inspired to create my own toy Python package for visualizing gradient descent.

Here is a link to my Python package, which uses PyVista for visualization:
