Introduction
The learning rate is the single most important hyperparameter in deep learning. Too small and training crawls; too large and it diverges. In practice the best results come from changing the learning rate during training with a schedule.
What happens when the learning rate is too small or too large, and learning-rate schedules: step, cosine and warm-up.
