Applies cosine decay to the learning rate.
tf.compat.v1.train.cosine_decay(
learning_rate, global_step, decay_steps, alpha=0.0, name=None
)
When training a model, it is often recommended to lower the learning rate as
the training progresses. This function applies a cosine decay function
to a provided initial learning rate. It requires a global_step value to
compute the decayed learning rate. You can just pass a TensorFlow variable
that you increment at each training step.
The function returns the decayed learning rate. It is computed as:
global_step = min(global_step, decay_steps)
cosine_decay = 0.5 * (1 + cos(pi * global_step / decay_steps))
decayed = (1 - alpha) * cosine_decay + alpha
decayed_learning_rate = learning_rate * decayed
Example usage:
decay_steps = 1000
lr_decayed = cosine_decay(learning_rate, global_step, decay_steps)
Args | |
|---|---|
learning_rate
|
A scalar float32 or float64 Tensor or a Python number.
The initial learning rate.
|
global_step
|
A scalar int32 or int64 Tensor or a Python number. Global
step to use for the decay computation.
|
decay_steps
|
A scalar int32 or int64 Tensor or a Python number. Number
of steps to decay over.
|
alpha
|
A scalar float32 or float64 Tensor or a Python number. Minimum
learning rate value as a fraction of learning_rate.
|
name
|
String. Optional name of the operation. Defaults to 'CosineDecay'. |
Returns | |
|---|---|
A scalar Tensor of the same type as learning_rate. The decayed
learning rate.
|
Raises | |
|---|---|
ValueError
|
if global_step is not supplied.

Eager Compatibility
When eager execution is enabled, this function returns a function which in turn returns the decayed learning rate Tensor. This can be useful for changing the learning rate value across different invocations of optimizer functions.
