Differences

PyTorch (torch.optim.lr_scheduler.CosineAnnealingLR): torch.optim.lr_scheduler.CosineAnnealingLR is used to periodically adjust the learning rate, where the input parameter T_max represents 1/2 of the period. Assuming the initial learning rate is lr, in each period of 2*T_max, the learning rate changes according to the specified calculation logic, for the formula detail, see the API docs; after the period ends, the learning rate returns to the initial value lr , and keep looping. When verbose is True, the relevant information is printed for each update.

MindSpore (mindspore.nn.cosine_decay_lr): the learning rate adjustment of mindspore.nn.cosine_decay_lr has no periodic changes, and the learning rate value changes according to the specified calculation logic. The formula calculation logic is the same as that of torch.optim.lr_scheduler.CosineAnnealingLR.

Differences

Parameter

Parameter 1

optimizer

Optimizer for PyTorch applications. MindSpore does not have this parameter

Parameter 2

T_max

total_step

The step to perform decay. The function is the same, and the parameter name is different

Parameter 3

eta_min

min_lr

Minimum learning rate, same function, different parameter names

Parameter 4

last_epoch

decay_epoch

The functions are the same, but the parameter names are different

Parameter 5

verbose

PyTorch prints information about each update when verbose is True. MindSpore does not have this parameter

Parameter 6

max_lr

Maximum learning rate. PyTorch is set to initial lr, and MindSpore is set to max_lr

Parameter 7

step_per_epoch

MindSpore number of steps per epoch

Code Example

# In MindSpore:
import mindspore.nn as nn

min_lr = 0.01
max_lr = 0.1
total_step = 6
step_per_epoch = 2
decay_epoch = 2
output = nn.cosine_decay_lr(min_lr, max_lr, total_step, step_per_epoch, decay_epoch)
print(output)
# [0.1, 0.1, 0.05500000000000001, 0.05500000000000001, 0.01, 0.01]


# In PyTorch:
import torch

myloss = torch.nn.MSELoss()
