摘要:

在这项工作中,我们全面揭示了神经网络的学习动力学与规范化,重量衰减(WD),和SGD(动量),命名为球面运动动力学(SMD)。大多数相关的工作研究SMD集中在“均衡”条件下的“有效学习率”,其中权重范数保持不变。然而,他们对为什么SMD可以达到平衡条件的讨论要么是缺席,要么是不太令人信服。我们的工作通过直接探索平衡条件的原因来研究SMD。具体来说,1)引入了SMD中导致平衡条件的假设条件,证明了在给定的假设条件下,权范数可以线性收敛:2)提出了“角度更新”来代替有效学习率来衡量SMD中神经网络的演化,证明了角度更新也可以线性收敛到理论值; 3)我们在各种计算机视觉任务上验证了我们的假设和理论结果,包括ImageNet和MSCOCO。实验结果表明,我们的理论研究结果与经验观察。

英文摘要:

In this work, we comprehensively reveal the learning dynamics of neural network with normalization, weight decay (WD), and SGD (with momentum), named as Spherical Motion Dynamics (SMD). Most related works study SMD by focusing on "effective learning rate" in "equilibrium" condition, where weight norm remains unchanged. However, their discussions on why equilibrium condition can be reached in SMD is either absent or less convincing. Our work investigates SMD by directly exploring the cause of equilibrium condition. Specifically, 1) we introduce the assumptions that can lead to equilibrium condition in SMD, and prove that weight norm can converge at linear rate with given assumptions; 2) we propose "angular update" as a substitute for effective learning rate to measure the evolving of neural network in SMD, and prove angular update can also converge to its theoretical value at linear rate; 3) we verify our assumptions and theoretical results on various computer vision tasks including ImageNet and MSCOCO with standard settings. Experiment results show our theoretical findings agree well with empirical observations.
