Scheduling the LR for PPCA models #9

Closed ordabayevy closed 3 months ago

(unrelated to this PR -- but I have a feeling that scheduling the LR e.g. w/ the usual cosine annealing might do wonders with PPCA. why? because it's a simple model w/ a convex loss and after the initial convergence to a rough solution, annealing can let the "ball" roll down to the global minimum. It'd be great to try this out in your experiments!).
