from torch.optim.optimizer import Optimizer, required
 
 
class SGD(Optimizer):
    r"""Implements stochastic gradient descent (optionally with momentum).
    Nesterov momentum is based on the formula from
    `On the importance of initialization and momentum in deep learning`__.
    Args:
        params (iterable): iterable of parameters to optimize or dicts defining
            parameter groups
        lr (float): learning rate
        momentum (float, optional): momentum factor (default: 0)
        weight_decay (float, optional): weight decay (L2 penalty) (default: 0)
        dampening (float, optional): dampening for momentum (default: 0)
        nesterov (bool, optional): enables Nesterov momentum (default: False)
    Example:
        >>> optimizer = torch.optim.SGD(model.parameters(), lr=0.1, momentum=0.9)
        >>> optimizer.zero_grad()
        >>> loss_fn(model(input), target).backward()
        >>> optimizer.step()

    .. note::
        The implementation of SGD with Momentum/Nesterov subtly differs from
        Sutskever et. al. and implementations in some other frameworks.
        Considering the specific case of Momentum, the update can be written as
        .. math::
            \begin{aligned}
                v_{t+1} & = \mu * v_{t} + g_{t+1}, \\
                p_{t+1} & = p_{t} - \text{lr} * v_{t+1},
            \end{aligned}
        where :math:`p`, :math:`g`, :math:`v` and :math:`\mu` denote the 
        parameters, gradient, velocity, and momentum respectively.
        This is in contrast to Sutskever et. al. and
        other frameworks which employ an update of the form
        .. math::
            \begin{aligned}
                v_{t+1} & = \mu * v_{t} + \text{lr} * g_{t+1}, \\
                p_{t+1} & = p_{t} - v_{t+1}.
            \end{aligned}
        The Nesterov version is analogously modified.
