spsa

Simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation implemented in Rust.

• Fast convergence

• Black-box, derivative-free optimization

• Stochastic functions (can be used on noisy functions)

• Converges well in higher-dimensions

• Hard constraints by returning NaN

• Automatic learning rate tuning and adaptive moment estimation

• Reusable allocation (does not allocate during optimization process)

• SIMD optimization
