Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add a high-pass filter (residual feedback) to vanilla SZO (ablation) | SZO · Logistic regression, d=2 and N=200 | convergence speed | Helped |
| Add a high-pass filter (residual feedback) to vanilla SZO (ablation) | SZO · Logistic regression, d=2 and N=200 | estimation variance | Helped |
| Add a low-pass filter (momentum) to HF-SZO (ablation) | HF-SZO · Logistic regression, d=2 and N=200 | convergence speed | Helped |
| Set the high-pass parameter β to 1 (ablation) | HLF-SZO · Logistic regression, d=2 and N=200 | convergence speed | Helped |
| Set the high-pass parameter β to 1 (ablation) | HLF-SZO · Logistic regression, d=2 and N=200 | estimation variance | Helped |
| Add a low-pass filter (momentum) to residual-feedback SZO (ablation) | Residual-feedback SZO · Logistic regression, ridge regression, and Beale function | convergence speed | Helped |
