_set_lr

set_lr

Set the learning rate of a given model generated by fe.build.

This method can be used with TensorFlow models:

m = fe.build(fe.architecture.tensorflow.LeNet, optimizer_fn="adam")  # m.optimizer.lr == 0.001
fe.backend.set_lr(m, lr=0.8)  # m.optimizer.lr == 0.8

This method can be used with PyTorch models:

m = fe.build(fe.architecture.pytorch.LeNet, optimizer_fn="adam")  # m.optimizer.param_groups[-1]['lr'] == 0.001
fe.backend.set_lr(m, lr=0.8)  # m.optimizer.param_groups[-1]['lr'] == 0.8

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
model	Union[Model, Module]	A neural network instance to modify.	required
lr	float	The learning rate to assign to the model.	required
weight_decay	Optional[float]	The weight decay parameter.	None

Raises:

Type	Description
ValueError	If model is an unacceptable data type.
