CosineAnnealingWithWarmup

Formulation

The learning rate is annealed using a cosine schedule over the course of learning of n_total total steps with an initial warmup period of n_warmup steps. Hence, the learning rate at step i is computed as:

Learning rate will be changed as:

Usage

# optimizer, warmup_epochs, warmup_lr, num_epochs, base_lr, final_lr, iter_per_epoch
lr_scheduler = LR_Scheduler(
        optimizer,
        args.warmup_epochs, args.warmup_lr*args.batch_size/256, 
        args.epochs, args.lr*args.batch_size/256, args.final_lr*args.batch_size/256, 
        len(train_loader),
    )

for data in range(train_loader):
  optimizer.zero_grad()
  output = model(data) 
  loss = lossfunc(output,gt)
  loss.backward()
  optimizer.step()
  lr_scheduler.step()

In CV domain [1,2], in order to automatically adapt different batch size you can use a learning rate of lr×BatchSize/256 (linear scaling [4])(we can use larger learning rate while adopting larger batch size, especially, when you use LARS optimizer[3]). Of course, you can modify it according to your specific requirements.
