[GitHub] yifeim opened a new issue #10494: stop_gradient fails under adam and wd

yifeim opened a new issue #10494: stop_gradient fails under adam and wd
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/10494
 
 
   ## Description
   mx.sym.stop_gradient fails to protect the parameters when using adam optimizer with wd>0. It works otherwise (with sgd or wd=0).

   ## Minimum reproducible example
   
   ```
   import mxnet as mx
   mx.random.seed(0)
   num_classes=2
   
   # data
   data_iter = mx.io.NDArrayIter(
       mx.nd.random.uniform(shape=(10, 5)),
       mx.nd.floor(mx.nd.random.uniform(shape=(10,))*num_classes),
       10
   )
   
   # symbol and module

           mx.sym.FullyConnected(data, num_hidden=num_classes, name='fc')
       ),
       softmax_label
   )
   mod = mx.mod.Module(loss)
   mod.bind(data_iter.provide_data, data_iter.provide_label)
   mod.init_params()

   # not okay with adam and wd
   mod.init_optimizer(optimizer='adam', optimizer_params={'wd':1e-10}, force_init=True)

   ```
   
   ## What have you tried to solve it?
   
   1. Avoid using adam and wd together.
