Abstract

This paper presents the application of a newly developed nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization method, namely the Adaptive Wind Driven Optimization (AWDO), to the training of feedforward artificial neural networks (NN) and presents a discussion into the future research of AWDO implementation in Deep Learning (DL). Application example of digit classification with MNIST dataset reveals interesting behavior of the derivative-free AWDO method compared to steepest descent method where results and future work on the implementation of AWDO in deep neural networks are discussed.
