Benefits of Batch Normalization
- Faster Convergence: By stabilizing the gradients, BN allows you to use higher learning rates, which can significantly speed up training.
- Reduced Internal Covariate Shift: As the network trains, the distribution of activations within a layer can change (internal covariate shift). BN helps mitigate this by normalizing activations before subsequent layers, making the training process less sensitive to these shifts.
- Initialization Insensitivity: BN makes the network less reliant on the initial weight values, allowing for more robust training and potentially better performance.
Batch Normalization Implementation in PyTorch
Batch Normalization (BN) is a critical technique in the training of neural networks, designed to address issues like vanishing or exploding gradients during training. In this tutorial, we will implement batch normalization using PyTorch framework.
