Slide 1: Introduction to AdEMAMix Optimizer
AdEMAMix is an optimization algorithm that combines the benefits of Adaptive Moment Estimation (Adam) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA). It aims to improve the convergence speed and stability of deep learning models during training.
import torch
import torch.optim as optim
class AdEMAMix(optim.Optimizer):
def __init__(self, params, lr=1e-3, betas=(0.9, 0.999), eps=1e-8, weight_decay=0):
defaults = dict(lr=lr, betas=betas, eps=eps, weight_decay=weight_decay)
super(AdEMAMix, self).__init__(params, defaults)
Slide 2: AdEMAMix Algorithm
The AdEMAMix algorithm updates model parameters using a combination of adaptive learning rates and momentum. It maintains moving averages of both the gradients and the squared gradients to adjust the learning rate for each parameter.
def step(self, closure=None):
loss = None
if closure is not None:
loss = closure()
for group in self.param_groups:
for p in group['params']:
if p.grad is None:
continue
grad = p.grad.data
state = self.state[p]
# State initialization
if len(state) == 0:
state['step'] = 0
state['exp_avg'] = torch.zeros_like(p.data)
state['exp_avg_sq'] = torch.zeros_like(p.data)
exp_avg, exp_avg_sq = state['exp_avg'], state['exp_avg_sq']
beta1, beta2 = group['betas']
state['step'] += 1
# Update biased first moment estimate
exp_avg.mul_(beta1).add_(1 - beta1, grad)
# Update biased second raw moment estimate
exp_avg_sq.mul_(beta2).addcmul_(1 - beta2, grad, grad)
# ... (continued in next slide)
Slide 3: AdEMAMix Update Rule
The update rule for AdEMAMix combines the adaptive learning rate of Adam with an exponential moving average of the parameters. This helps in reducing the variance of the parameter updates and potentially improving generalization.
# ... (continued from previous slide)
bias_correction1 = 1 - beta1 ** state['step']
bias_correction2 = 1 - beta2 ** state['step']
step_size = group['lr'] * math.sqrt(bias_correction2) / bias_correction1
# Compute AdEMAMix update
denom = exp_avg_sq.sqrt().add_(group['eps'])
p.data.addcdiv_(-step_size, exp_avg, denom)
# Apply weight decay
if group['weight_decay'] != 0:
p.data.add_(-group['weight_decay'] * group['lr'], p.data)
# Apply EMA
ema_beta = 0.99 # EMA decay rate
if 'ema' not in state:
state['ema'] = p.data.clone()
else:
state['ema'].mul_(ema_beta).add_(1 - ema_beta, p.data)
return loss
Slide 4: Advantages of AdEMAMix
AdEMAMix combines the benefits of adaptive learning rates and parameter averaging. This approach can lead to faster convergence and improved stability in training deep neural networks, especially for tasks with noisy or sparse gradients.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
def plot_convergence(adam_loss, ademamix_loss):
plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
plt.plot(adam_loss, label='Adam')
plt.plot(ademamix_loss, label='AdEMAMix')
plt.xlabel('Iterations')
plt.ylabel('Loss')
plt.title('Convergence Comparison: Adam vs AdEMAMix')
plt.legend()
plt.show()
# Simulated loss values
adam_loss = np.exp(-np.linspace(0, 5, 100)) + np.random.normal(0, 0.1, 100)
ademamix_loss = np.exp(-np.linspace(0, 5, 100)) * 0.8 + np.random.normal(0, 0.05, 100)
plot_convergence(adam_loss, ademamix_loss)
Slide 5: Implementing AdEMAMix in PyTorch
To use AdEMAMix in your PyTorch projects, you can create a custom optimizer class that inherits from torch.optim.Optimizer. This allows seamless integration with existing PyTorch models and training loops.
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
import torch.optim as optim
# Define a simple neural network
class SimpleNN(nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super(SimpleNN, self).__init__()
self.fc1 = nn.Linear(10, 5)
self.fc2 = nn.Linear(5, 1)
def forward(self, x):
x = torch.relu(self.fc1(x))
x = self.fc2(x)
return x
# Create model and optimizer
model = SimpleNN()
optimizer = AdEMAMix(model.parameters(), lr=0.001)
# Training loop
for epoch in range(100):
# ... (training code here)
optimizer.step()
Slide 6: Hyperparameter Tuning for AdEMAMix
Tuning hyperparameters is crucial for optimal performance. Key parameters include learning rate, beta values for moment estimates, and the EMA decay rate. Here's a simple grid search implementation to find the best hyperparameters.
import itertools
def grid_search(model, train_loader, val_loader):
lr_values = [0.001, 0.01, 0.1]
beta1_values = [0.9, 0.95]
beta2_values = [0.999, 0.9999]
ema_beta_values = [0.99, 0.999]
best_val_loss = float('inf')
best_params = None
for lr, beta1, beta2, ema_beta in itertools.product(lr_values, beta1_values, beta2_values, ema_beta_values):
optimizer = AdEMAMix(model.parameters(), lr=lr, betas=(beta1, beta2))
# Train the model
val_loss = train_and_evaluate(model, optimizer, train_loader, val_loader, ema_beta)
if val_loss < best_val_loss:
best_val_loss = val_loss
best_params = (lr, beta1, beta2, ema_beta)
return best_params
# Usage
best_lr, best_beta1, best_beta2, best_ema_beta = grid_search(model, train_loader, val_loader)
print(f"Best parameters: lr={best_lr}, beta1={best_beta1}, beta2={best_beta2}, ema_beta={best_ema_beta}")
Slide 7: Comparing AdEMAMix with Other Optimizers
To understand the benefits of AdEMAMix, it's useful to compare its performance with other popular optimizers like Adam, SGD, and RMSprop. Here's a script to visualize the training progress of different optimizers.
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
import torch.optim as optim
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def train_and_plot(model, optimizers, train_loader, num_epochs):
losses = {name: [] for name in optimizers.keys()}
for epoch in range(num_epochs):
for name, optimizer in optimizers.items():
model.train()
epoch_loss = 0
for batch in train_loader:
inputs, targets = batch
optimizer.zero_grad()
outputs = model(inputs)
loss = nn.MSELoss()(outputs, targets)
loss.backward()
optimizer.step()
epoch_loss += loss.item()
losses[name].append(epoch_loss / len(train_loader))
plt.figure(figsize=(10, 6))
for name, loss in losses.items():
plt.plot(loss, label=name)
plt.xlabel('Epochs')
plt.ylabel('Loss')
plt.title('Optimizer Comparison')
plt.legend()
plt.show()
# Usage
model = SimpleNN()
optimizers = {
'AdEMAMix': AdEMAMix(model.parameters(), lr=0.001),
'Adam': optim.Adam(model.parameters(), lr=0.001),
'SGD': optim.SGD(model.parameters(), lr=0.01),
'RMSprop': optim.RMSprop(model.parameters(), lr=0.001)
}
train_and_plot(model, optimizers, train_loader, num_epochs=50)
Slide 8: AdEMAMix for Generative Models
AdEMAMix can be particularly effective for training generative models, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). The adaptive learning rates and parameter averaging can help stabilize the training process and potentially improve the quality of generated samples.
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
class Generator(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, latent_dim, img_shape):
super(Generator, self).__init__()
self.model = nn.Sequential(
nn.Linear(latent_dim, 128),
nn.LeakyReLU(0.2, inplace=True),
nn.Linear(128, 256),
nn.BatchNorm1d(256),
nn.LeakyReLU(0.2, inplace=True),
nn.Linear(256, int(np.prod(img_shape))),
nn.Tanh()
)
self.img_shape = img_shape
def forward(self, z):
img = self.model(z)
img = img.view(img.size(0), *self.img_shape)
return img
# Initialize generator and optimizer
latent_dim = 100
img_shape = (1, 28, 28) # For MNIST
generator = Generator(latent_dim, img_shape)
optimizer = AdEMAMix(generator.parameters(), lr=0.0002, betas=(0.5, 0.999))
# Training loop (simplified)
for epoch in range(num_epochs):
for i, (real_imgs, _) in enumerate(dataloader):
z = torch.randn(real_imgs.size(0), latent_dim)
gen_imgs = generator(z)
# ... (compute loss and backpropagate)
optimizer.step()
Slide 9: AdEMAMix for Reinforcement Learning
AdEMAMix can also be applied to reinforcement learning tasks, potentially improving the stability and convergence of policy optimization algorithms. Here's an example of using AdEMAMix with a simple policy gradient method.
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
import gym
class PolicyNetwork(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, input_dim, output_dim):
super(PolicyNetwork, self).__init__()
self.fc = nn.Sequential(
nn.Linear(input_dim, 64),
nn.ReLU(),
nn.Linear(64, output_dim),
nn.Softmax(dim=-1)
)
def forward(self, x):
return self.fc(x)
env = gym.make('CartPole-v1')
policy = PolicyNetwork(env.observation_space.shape[0], env.action_space.n)
optimizer = AdEMAMix(policy.parameters(), lr=0.01)
def train_policy(num_episodes):
for episode in range(num_episodes):
state = env.reset()
episode_reward = 0
log_probs = []
rewards = []
while True:
action_probs = policy(torch.FloatTensor(state))
action = torch.distributions.Categorical(action_probs).sample()
next_state, reward, done, _ = env.step(action.item())
log_probs.append(torch.log(action_probs[action]))
rewards.append(reward)
episode_reward += reward
state = next_state
if done:
break
# Compute and apply gradients
returns = torch.tensor(rewards)
loss = -torch.sum(torch.stack(log_probs) * returns)
optimizer.zero_grad()
loss.backward()
optimizer.step()
print(f"Episode {episode}, Reward: {episode_reward}")
train_policy(1000)
Slide 10: AdEMAMix for Natural Language Processing

from torchtext.datasets import IMDB
class LSTMClassifier(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, vocab_size, embedding_dim, hidden_dim, output_dim):
super(LSTMClassifier, self).__init__()
self.embedding = nn.Embedding(vocab_size, embedding_dim)

(train_data, test_data), batch_size=64, device='cpu')
for epoch in range(10):
for batch in train_iterator:
optimizer.zero_grad()
predictions = model(batch.text).squeeze(1)

# Training loop (pseudocode)
for epoch in range(num_epochs):
for batch in dataloader:
optimizer.zero_grad()

loss = nn.MSELoss()(outputs, batch)
loss.backward()
optimizer.step()
# Anomaly detection
