Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Neural ODE learns an ordinary differential equation using neural networks, thereby modeling a continuous-time dynamics and probabilistic model with high accuracy. However, it uses the same neural network repeatedly, the backpropagation algorithm for training consumes extraordinary memory. Hence, the adjoint method has been often used, which calculates a gradient by a numerical integration. It requires much computational cost to suppress the numerical errors. Sanz-Serna, 2016, proposed to use a symplectic integrator for the adjoint method, thereby obtaining the exact gradient. In this study, we combine this method with a checkpointing scheme, and balance the fast calculation and small memory requirements.
