A new scaling law, termed the 'three-term law,' has been proposed that accounts for model size and training data, specifically differentiating between training steps and batch size. This law has been validated by fitting it to a large dataset of training runs, where it accurately predicted the optimal batch size. The research indicates that this three-term law can be robustly fitted with fewer training runs than previous methods and can also be used to derive scaling laws for suboptimal batch sizes, aligning with existing empirical observations on critical batch sizes.
