Quantum Machine Learning
Local minima are points in a mathematical function where the function value is lower than that of its neighboring points, but not necessarily the lowest overall value of the function. They play a crucial role in optimization problems, particularly when finding the best solution in a complex landscape of possible solutions. In various computational contexts, including neural networks and optimization algorithms, local minima can hinder progress toward achieving optimal performance, making it essential to understand their behavior.
congrats on reading the definition of local minima. now let's actually learn it.
