This study introduces a novel Riemannian-gradient learning method for complex-valued matrix-hyperspheres. The approach effectively optimizes learning by using a geodesic-stepping algorithm for efficient stepsize computation.
Area of Science:
- Complex Analysis
- Optimization Theory
- Machine Learning
