Speeding up deep neural network training with decoupled and analytic learning by Zhuang, Huiping

“…The other challenge is that, to implement the analytic learning, there is a possible issue of memory leak caused by matrix operations based on the entire dataset. Hence, a block-wise recursive Moore-Penrose inverse (BRMP) method is proposed which can reformulate the original analytic learning exactly into a block-wise alternative using a block-wise decomposition of Moore-Penrose inverse. …”
