If you are looking for an answer to the question What is Artificial Intelligence? and you only have a minute, then here's the definition the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence offers on its home page: "the scientific understanding of the mechanisms underlying thought and intelligent behavior and their embodiment in machines."

However, if you are fortunate enough to have more than a minute, then please get ready to embark upon an exciting journey exploring AI (but beware, it could last a lifetime) …

Different variants ofmomentum, including heavyball momentum, Nesterov's accelerated gradient (NAG), and quasi-hyperbolic momentum (QHM), havedemonstrated success onvarious tasks. Our results are most closely related to the work of Mandt et al.[19]who use stationaryanalysis of SGD with momentum to perform approximateBayesianinference.
