A tweet aggregates three video lecture series on optimization and machine learning theory:
- Stephen Wright: ICM 2026 "Optimization in Theory & Practice"
- Yousef Saad: "Acceleration Techniques at the Interface of Optimization, Linear Algebra & Machine Learning"
- Peter Bartlett: "Modern Machine Learning Methods," covering large step-size optimization, implicit bias, and benign overfitting
All three are leading authorities in optimization and learning theory; the material suits anyone wanting a deeper mathematical grounding in deep learning optimization.
