About learning_rate Gradually diminishing,is it necessary? #34

xinsuinizhuan commented 4 years ago

A yolo's learning_rate, it decrease at epoche's 80% and 90%, whether it is necessary in our model?

josephjaspers commented 4 years ago

It is not necessary but it is recommended to decrease the step size in gradient descent. (So when the neural network is getting close to the minima it decreases the step-size so as to not jump-over the minima).
