Understanding Synthetic Gradients and Decoupled Neural Interfaces

Wojciech Marian Czarnecki, Grzegorz Świrszcz, Max Jaderberg +3

When training neural networks, the use of Synthetic Gradients (SG) allows layers or modules to be trained without update locking - without waiting for a true error gradient to be b…
