Researchers have developed a novel Lyapunov-based analysis to understand the convergence of stochastic gradient descent with momentum (SGDM). Their work reveals that increasing batch sizes, particularly when paired with a learning rate increase, leads to provably faster convergence compared to fixed hyperparameters. Empirical results demonstrated that dynamically scheduled SGDM, especially with a warmup phase, significantly outperforms static configurations in terms of speed. AI
