====== SGD-2.0 released ====== Announcing version 2.0 of my [[:projects:sgd|Stochastic Gradient Descent]] package. This release provides implementations of the //Stochastic Gradient Descent// and //Averaged Stochastic Gradient Descent// algorithms for Linear SVMs and CRFs. The latter sometimes shows vastly superior performance. See [[:projects:sgd|the SGD package pages]] for details.
