Adam

Adam (Adaptive moment estimation) is an adaptive learning rate optimizer, combining ideas from SGD with momentum and RMSprop to automatically scale the learning rate:

bitsandbytes also supports paged optimizers which take advantage of CUDAs unified memory to transfer memory from the GPU to the CPU when GPU memory is exhausted.

Parameters

  • params (torch.tensor) — The input parameters to optimize.
  • lr (float, defaults to 1e-3) — The learning rate.
  • betas (tuple(float, float), defaults to (0.9, 0.999)) — The beta values are the decay rates of the first and second-order moment of the optimizer.
  • eps (float, defaults to 1e-8) — The epsilon value prevents division by zero in the optimizer.
  • weight_decay (float, defaults to 0.0) — The weight decay value for the optimizer.
  • amsgrad (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to use the AMSGrad variant of Adam that uses the maximum of past squared gradients instead.
  • optim_bits (int, defaults to 32) — The number of bits of the optimizer state.
  • args (object, defaults to None) — An object with additional arguments.
  • min_8bit_size (int, defaults to 4096) — The minimum number of elements of the parameter tensors for 8-bit optimization.
  • percentile_clipping (int, defaults to 100) — Adapts clipping threshold automatically by tracking the last 100 gradient norms and clipping the gradient at a certain percentile to improve stability.
  • block_wise (bool, defaults to True) — Whether to independently quantize each block of tensors to reduce outlier effects and improve stability.
  • is_paged (bool, defaults to False) — Whether the optimizer is a paged optimizer or not.
