A new research paper benchmarks five gradient optimizers and three memory strategies for AI training on constrained hardware. The study found that gradient accumulation is the most effective strategy for reducing training loss across different architectures, while gradient checkpointing's performance is highly architecture-dependent. Contrary to common assumptions, Adam was not universally superior, with Adadelta and SGD outperforming it in certain cases. The research provides practical guidance for selecting optimizers and gradient strategies to improve resource efficiency in AI model training and deployment. AI
