In many cases it may be more optimal or more stable to fit using second order Newton-based optimization techniques. Since SciMLSensitivity.jl provides second order sensitivity analysis for fast Hessians and Hessian-vector products (via forward-over-reverse), we can utilize these in our neural/universal differential equation training processes.
sciml_train
is set up to automatically use second order sensitivity analysis
methods if a second order optimizer is requested via Optim.jl. Thus Newton
and NewtonTrustRegion
optimizers will use a second order Hessian-based
optimization, while KrylovTrustRegion
will utilize a Krylov-based method
with Hessian-vector products (never forming the Hessian) for large parameter
optimizations.

Note that we do not demonstrate Newton()
because we have not found a single
case where it is competitive with the other two methods. KrylovTrustRegion()
is generally the fastest due to its use of Hessian-vector products.
