CNN model on image classification is not convergent, which is based on Tensorflow

I try to train a CNN model, 2 classes, which is based on tensorflow to do the image classification. I have tried much modification about epochs, learning rate, batch size and the CNN size, but nothing works. about data 86(label: 0) + 63(label: 1)…

Can I use sympy to solve for convergence?

Hello I am writing a program that determines if a series is convergent or not, and discovered sympy. I have written almost all of the tests, just have a few hard ones to write, but I now wonder if their is a built in sympy method to solve it. I have…

Convergence in Logistic Regression in distributed tensorflow

I'm trying to develop logistic regression in distributed tensorflow and I want to integrate a convergence check in my algorithm apart from the upper bound of iterations. The convergence criteria I am about to use is ||prevW - currW|| < E where prevW…

Calculating the rate of convergence of the code using newton method

My task is to write a program which calculates the rate of convergence of a method. I had to use the newton method to make an approximation of the root. This part of the code is ok and works well, but I will inculde it. x0 : start value F:…

dlib network doesn't converge

I'm working on character recognition using dlib on linux. When I train my network on 1000 characters the network converges until it reaches 100% of accuracy but when I try training it with 10,000 or 100,000 characters it is not converging anymore to…

Kalman Filter of a straight line doesn't converge

I'm trying to write an algorithm that estimates and tracks a straigh line: y[k]=b1*x[k]+b2[k]. In the real physical system I work with, I can only measure y[k], and to control it the input is x[k] (I enter x[k] and expect to get a specific…
