US Patent 11651228 Dual-momentum gradient optimization with reduced memory requirements

Systems and methods related to dual-momentum gradient optimization with reduced memory requirements are described. An example method in a system comprising a gradient optimizer and a memory configured to store momentum values associated with a neural network model comprising L layers is described. The method includes retrieving from the memory a first set of momentum values and a second set of momentum values, corresponding to a layer of the neural network model, having a selected storage format. The method further includes converting the first set of momentum values to a third set of momentum values having a training format associated with the gradient optimizer and converting the second set of momentum values to a fourth set of momentum values having a training format associated with the gradient optimizer. The method further includes performing gradient optimization using the third set of momentum values and the fourth set of momentum values.
