Summary:
Fixes : https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/24892
In the paper : https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.03265.pdf Liyuan Liu et al. suggested a new optimization algorithm with an essence of similar to Adam Algorithm.
It has been discussed in the paper that, without warmup heuristic, in the early stage of adaptive optimization / learning algorithms sometimes we can get undesirable large variance which can slow overall convergence process.
Authors proposed the idea of rectification of variance of adaptive learning rate when it is expected to be high.
Differing from the paper, we selected variance tractability cut-off as 5 instead of 4. This adjustment is common practice, and could be found in the code-repository and also tensorflow swift optim library as well :

Summary:
Fixes : https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/5804
In the paper : https://openreview.net/forum?id=OM0jvwB8jIp57ZJjtNEZ Timothy Dozat suggested a new optimization algorithm with an essence of combination of NAG and Adam algorithms.
It is known that the idea of momentum can be improved with the Nesterov acceleration in optimization algorithms, and Dozat is investigating to apply this idea to momentum component of Adam algorithm. Author provided experiment evidence in their work to show excellence of the idea.
In this PR we are implementing the proposed algorithm NAdam in the mentioned paper. Author has a preliminary work http://cs229.stanford.edu/proj2015/054_report.pdf where he shows the decay base constant should be taken as 0.96 which we also followed the same phenomenon here in this implementation similar to Keras. Moreover, implementation / coding practice have been followed similar to Keras in some other places as well:

Summary:
Functional API is used in large scale distributed training to enable multithreaded training instead of multiprocess, as it gives more optimal resource utilization and efficiency.
In this PR, we provide code migration and refactoring for functional API for ASGD algorithm.
