ParameterSchedulers

Dev Build Status

ParameterSchedulers.jl provides common machine learning (ML) schedulers for hyper-parameters. Though this package is framework agnostic, a convenient interface for pairing schedules with Flux.jl optimizers is available. Using this package with Flux is as simple as:

using Flux, ParameterSchedulers
using ParameterSchedulers: Scheduler

opt = Scheduler(Momentum, Exp(start = 1e-2, decay = 0.8))

Available Schedules

This is a table of the common schedules implemented, but ParameterSchedulers provides utilities for creating more exotic schedules as well. The higher order schedules should make it so that you will rarely need to write a schedule from scratch.

You can read this paper for more information on the schedules below.

Schedule Description Type Example

Step(; start, decay, step_sizes)

Exponential decay by decay every step in step_sizes

Decay
using UnicodePlots, ParameterSchedulers # hide
t = 1:10 |> collect # hide
s = Step(start = 1.0, decay = 0.8, step_sizes = [2, 3, 2]) # hide
lineplot(t, s.(t); width = 15, height = 3, border = :ascii, labels = false) # hide

Exp(start, decay)

Exponential decay by decay every iteration

Decay
using UnicodePlots, ParameterSchedulers # hide
t = 1:10 |> collect # hide
s = Exp(start = 1.0, decay = 0.5) # hide
lineplot(t, s.(t); width = 15, height = 3, border = :ascii, labels = false) # hide

CosAnneal(;l0, l1, period)

Cosine annealing

Cyclic
using UnicodePlots, ParameterSchedulers # hide
t = 1:10 |> collect # hide
s = CosAnneal(l0 = 0.0, l1 = 1.0, period = 4) # hide
lineplot(t, s.(t); width = 15, height = 3, border = :ascii, labels = false) # hide

OneCycle(nsteps, maxval)

One cycle cosine

Complex
