#๐Ÿ”’ Help my understand my Gradient descent plots

These are my gradient descent plots with a different step size each time. As you can see, a small step size stops at a local minimum, and does not reach the minimum. A bigger step size plummets and therefore the stepsize is too large to reach the minimum.

My first question is, does this mean the optimum step size is 0,4?

Second question, how can I improve my 0.01 step size implementation? Reduce the domain? Also, how do I improve my 0.5 step size implementation?

Thanks in advance.

Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Update, so increasing the number of epochs improved the 0.01 steps gradient descent
