BFGS 和 L-BFGS 优化器
拟牛顿法是一种广受欢迎的一阶优化算法。这些方法使用对确切黑塞矩阵的正定逼近来查找搜索方向。
Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno 算法 (BFGS) 是这一大致想法的具体实现。对于梯度在所有位置均连续（例如，使用 \(L_2\) 惩罚的线性回归）的中等规模问题，此算法适用并且也是首选方法。
L-BFGS 是有限内存版本的 BFGS，适合解决按照合理的成本无法计算黑塞矩阵或者黑塞矩阵不是稀疏矩阵的大型问题。它们不存储黑塞矩阵完全密集的 \(n \times n\) 近似值，而是仅保存长度为 \(n\) 的几个向量，用于隐式表示这些近似值。

L-BFGS 用于简单二次函数
# Fix numpy seed for reproducibility
np.random.seed(12345)
# The objective must be supplied as a function that takes a single
# (Tensor) argument and returns a tuple. The first component of the
# tuple is the value of the objective at the supplied point and the
# second value is the gradient at the supplied point. The value must
# be a scalar and the gradient must have the same shape as the
# supplied argument.
# The `make_val_and_grad_fn` decorator helps transforming a function
# returning the objective value into one that returns both the gradient
# and the value. It also works for both eager and graph mode.

# starting point for the search. For this example we choose a random
# starting point.
start = np.random.randn(dim)
# Finally an optional argument called tolerance let's you choose the
# stopping point of the search. The tolerance specifies the maximum
# (supremum) norm of the gradient vector at which the algorithm terminates.
# If you don't have a specific need for higher or lower accuracy, leaving
# this parameter unspecified (and hence using the default value of 1e-8)
# should be good enough.

results = run(quadratic_with_lbfgs)
# The optimization results contain multiple pieces of information. The most
# important fields are: 'converged' and 'position'.
# Converged is a boolean scalar tensor. As the name implies, it indicates
# whether the norm of the gradient at the final point was within tolerance.
# Position is the location of the minimum found. It is important to check
# that converged is True before using the value of the position.

使用 L1 惩罚的线性回归：前列腺癌数据

使用 L-BFGS 解决问题
使用 L-BFGS 进行拟合。即使 L1 惩罚会引起导数不连续，但 L-BFGS 实际上仍表现得很不错。

使用下山单纯形法解决问题
下山单纯形法是最受欢迎的无导数最小化方法之一。此优化器不使用梯度信息，不假设目标函数的可微分性，因此，适合非平滑目标函数，例如，使用 L1 惩罚的优化问题。
对于 \(n\) 维优化问题，该优化器维护一组 \(n+1\) 个候选解决方案，这些解决方案跨越非退化单纯形。优化器使用每个顶点的函数值基于一组变动（反射、膨胀、收缩和紧缩）连续修改单纯形。

使用 L2 惩罚的逻辑回归

支持批处理
BFGS 和 L-BFGS 都支持使用批处理计算来执行多种操作，例如，从许多不同起始点优化一个函数，或者从一个点优化多个参数函数。
单个函数，多个起始点
Himmelblau 函数是标准优化测试用例。该函数的表达式如下：
\[f(x, y) = (x^2 + y - 11)^2 + (x + y^2 - 7)^2\]
该函数具有四个最小值，取值分别如下：
- (3, 2)，
- (-2.805118, 3.131312)，
- (-3.779310, -3.283186)，
- (3.584428, -1.848126)。
可以从相应的起始点到达所有这些最小值。
# The function to minimize must take as input a tensor of shape [..., n]. In
# this n=2 is the size of the domain of the input and [...] are batching
# dimensions. The return value must be of shape [...], i.e. a batch of scalars
# with the objective value of the function evaluated at each input point.

[1, -2]], dtype='float64')
# The stopping_condition allows to further specify when should the search stop.
# The default, tfp.optimizer.converged_all, will proceed until all points have
# either converged or failed. There is also a tfp.optimizer.converged_any to
# stop as soon as the first point converges, or all have failed.
