mxnet.optimizer.DCASGD¶

class mxnet.optimizer.DCASGD(momentum=0.0, lamda=0.04, **kwargs)[source]¶

The DCASGD optimizer.

This class implements the optimizer described in Asynchronous Stochastic Gradient Descent with Delay Compensation for Distributed Deep Learning, available at https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.08326.

This optimizer accepts the following parameters in addition to those accepted by Optimizer.

Parameters:	momentum (float, optional) – The momentum value. lamda (float, optional) – Scale DC value.

__init__(momentum=0.0, lamda=0.04, **kwargs)[source]¶: Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

Methods

`__init__`([momentum, lamda])	Initialize self.
`create_optimizer`(name, **kwargs)	Instantiates an optimizer with a given name and kwargs.
`create_state`(index, weight)	Creates auxiliary state for a given weight.
`create_state_multi_precision`(index, weight)	Creates auxiliary state for a given weight, including FP32 high precision copy if original weight is FP16.
`register`(klass)	Registers a new optimizer.
`set_learning_rate`(lr)	Sets a new learning rate of the optimizer.
`set_lr_mult`(args_lr_mult)	Sets an individual learning rate multiplier for each parameter.
`set_lr_scale`(args_lrscale)	[DEPRECATED] Sets lr scale.
`set_wd_mult`(args_wd_mult)	Sets an individual weight decay multiplier for each parameter.
`update`(index, weight, grad, state)	Updates the given parameter using the corresponding gradient and state.
`update_multi_precision`(index, weight, grad, …)	Updates the given parameter using the corresponding gradient and state.
