Visualizations

Visualizations help us see how different algorithms deal with simple situations like: saddle points, local minima, valleys etc, and may provide interesting insights into the inner workings of an algorithm. Rosenbrock and Rastrigin benchmark functions were selected because:

Rosenbrock (also known as banana function), is non-convex function that has one global minimum (1.0. 1.0). The global minimum is inside a long, narrow, parabolic shaped flat valley. Finding the valley is trivial. Converging to the global minimum, however, is difficult. Optimization algorithms might pay a lot of attention to one coordinate, and struggle following the valley which is relatively flat.

Rastrigin is a non-convex function and has one global minimum in (0.0, 0.0). Finding the minimum of this function is a fairly difficult problem due to its large search space and its large number of local minima.

Each optimizer performs 501 optimization steps. Learning rate is the best one found by a hyper parameter search algorithm, the rest of the tuning parameters are default. It is very easy to extend the script and tune other optimizer parameters.

Warning

Do not pick an optimizer based on visualizations, optimization approaches have unique properties and may be tailored for different purposes or may require explicit learning rate schedule etc. The best way to find out is to try one on your particular problem and see if it improves scores.

If you do not know which optimizer to use, start with the built in SGD/Adam. Once the training logic is ready and baseline scores are established, swap the optimizer and see if there is any improvement.

AdaMod

The AdaMod method restricts the adaptive learning rates with adaptive and momental upper bounds. The dynamic learning rate bounds are based on the exponential moving averages of the adaptive learning rates themselves, which smooth out unexpected large learning rates and stabilize the training of deep neural networks.

Reference Code: https://github.com/amirgholami/adahessian

AdamP

AdamP propose a simple and effective solution: at each iteration of the Adam optimizer applied on scale-invariant weights (e.g., Conv weights preceding a BN layer), AdamP removes the radial component (i.e., parallel to the weight vector) from the update vector. Intuitively, this operation prevents the unnecessary update along the radial direction that only increases the weight norm without contributing to the loss minimization.
