# Ranger deep learning optimizer - RAdam + Lookahead + Gradient Centralization, combined into one optimizer.
# https://github.com/lessw2020/Ranger-Deep-Learning-Optimizer
# and/or
# https://github.com/lessw2020/Best-Deep-Learning-Optimizers
# Ranger has now been used to capture 12 records on the FastAI leaderboard.
# This version = 20.4.11
# Credits:
# Gradient Centralization --> https://arxiv.org/abs/2004.01461v2 (a new optimization technique for DNNs), github: https://github.com/Yonghongwei/Gradient-Centralization
# RAdam --> https://github.com/LiyuanLucasLiu/RAdam
# Lookahead --> rewritten by lessw2020, but big thanks to Github @LonePatient and @RWightman for ideas from their code.
# Lookahead paper --> MZhang,G Hinton https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.08610
# summary of changes:
# 4/11/20 - add gradient centralization option. Set new testing benchmark for accuracy with it, toggle with use_gc flag at init.
# full code integration with all updates at param level instead of group, moves slow weights into state dict (from generic weights),
# supports group learning rates (thanks @SHolderbach), fixes sporadic load from saved model issues.
# changes 8/31/19 - fix references to *self*.N_sma_threshold;
# changed eps to 1e-5 as better default than 1e-8.
