The linked paper is a wonderful read indeed! This guy is the Terry Pratchett of home-grown deep learning libraries... So I did that and let it run for a month. Actually I had to start over several times with different parameters and initialization weights because it would get stuck (Figure 11) right away or as soon as I looked away from the computer. I prayed to the dark wizard of hyperparameter tuning until he smiled upon my initial conditions, knowing that some- where he was adding another tick-mark next to my name in a tidy but ultimately terrifying Moleskine notebook that he bought on a whim in the Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport on a business trip, and still feels was overpriced for what it is.
