Description copied from class: Updater

Compute an updated value for weights given the gradient, stepSize, iteration number and regularization parameter. Also returns the regularization value regParam * R(w) computed using the *updated* weights.

Specified by:

compute in class Updater

Parameters:

weightsOld - - Column matrix of size dx1 where d is the number of features.

gradient - - Column matrix of size dx1 where d is the number of features.

stepSize - - step size across iterations

iter - - Iteration number

regParam - - Regularization parameter

Returns:

A tuple of 2 elements. The first element is a column matrix containing updated weights, and the second element is the regularization value computed using updated weights.
