6.3.8 The Learning Rate

The notion of a learning rate comes up often in ML. We’ll describe it here in general and then explain how it works for gradient boosting. We’ll see it again in our material on support vector machines (Chapter 10) and neural networks (Chapter 11).

This section has a bit of math in it, in the form of curves and lines tangent to them, which is an exception to the avowedly nonmathematical nature of this book. But there are still no equations, and even math-averse readers should be able to follow the discussion.
