Linear methods. Error estimate Linear function I1 I2 w1 w2 o
Gradient descent (from wekipedia) Gradient descent is based on the observation that if the real-valued function F(x) is defined and differentiable in a neighborhood of a point a, then F(x) decreases fastest if one goes from a in the direction of the negative gradient of F at a. It follows that, if for > 0 a small enough number, then F(b)<F(a)
Gradient descent Weights are changed in the opposite direction of the gradient of the error

Monte Carlo Because of their reliance on repeated computation of random or pseudo-random numbers, Monte Carlo methods are most suited to calculation by a computer. Monte Carlo methods tend to be used when it is unfeasible or impossible to compute an exact result with a deterministic algorithm Or when you are too stupid to do the math yourself?
Example: Estimating Π by Independent Monte-Carlo Samples Suppose we throw darts randomly (and uniformly) at the square: Algorithm: For i=[1..ntrials] x = (random# in [0..r]) y = (random# in [0..r]) distance = sqrt (x^2 + y^2) if distance ≤ r hits++ End Output: http://www.chem.unl.edu/zeng/joy/mclab/mcintro.html Adapted from course slides by Craig Douglas
Sampling Protein Conformations with MCMC(Markov Chain Monte Carlo) • Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) with “proposals”: • Perturb Structure to create a “proposal” • Accept or reject new conformation with a “certain” probability • After a long run, we want to find low-energy conformations, with high probability • A (physically) natural* choice is the Boltzman distribution, proportional to: • Ei = energy of state i • kB = Boltzman constant • T = temperature • Z = “Partition Function” Protein image taken from Chemical Biology, 2006 • But how? Slides adapted from Barak Raveh • * In theory, the Boltzman distribution is a bit problematic in non-gas phase, but never mind that for now…
The Metropolis-Hastings Criterion "Equations of State Calculations by Fast Computing Machines“ – Metropolis, N. et al. Journal of Chemical Physics (1953) • Boltzman Distribution: • The energy score and temperature are computed (quite) easily • The “only” problem is calculating Z (the “partition function”) – this requires summing over all states. • Metropolis showed that MCMC will converge to the true Boltzman distribution, if we accept a new proposal with probability Slides adapted from Barak Raveh
Sampling Protein Conformations with Metropolis-Hastings MCMC • Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) with “proposals”: • Perturb Structure to create a “proposal” • Accept or reject new conformation by the Metropolis criterion • Repeat for many iterations • If we run till infinity, with good perturbations, we will visit every conformation according to the Boltzman distribution • But we just want to find the energy minimum. If we do our perturbations in a smart manner, we can still cover relevant (realistic, low-energy) parts of the search space Protein image taken from Chemical Biology, 2006 Slides adapted from Barak Raveh
