tf.keras.callbacks.ReduceLROnPlateau
Reduce learning rate when a metric has stopped improving.
Inherits From: Callback
tf.keras.callbacks.ReduceLROnPlateau(
    monitor='val_loss', factor=0.1, patience=10, verbose=0,
    mode='auto', min_delta=0.0001, cooldown=0, min_lr=0, **kwargs
)
Models often benefit from reducing the learning rate by a factor of 2-10 once learning stagnates. This callback monitors a quantity and if no improvement is seen for a 'patience' number of epochs, the learning rate is reduced.
Example:
reduce_lr = ReduceLROnPlateau(monitor='val_loss', factor=0.2,
                              patience=5, min_lr=0.001)
model.fit(X_train, Y_train, callbacks=[reduce_lr])
| Arguments | |
|---|---|
| monitor | quantity to be monitored. | 
| factor | factor by which the learning rate will be reduced. new_lr = lr * factor. | 
| patience | number of epochs with no improvement after which learning rate will be reduced. | 
| verbose | int. 0: quiet, 1: update messages. | 
| mode | one of {'auto', 'min', 'max'}. In'min'mode, the learning rate will be reduced when the quantity monitored has stopped decreasing; in'max'mode it will be reduced when the quantity monitored has stopped increasing; in'auto'mode, the direction is automatically inferred from the name of the monitored quantity. | 
| min_delta | threshold for measuring the new optimum, to only focus on significant changes. | 
| cooldown | number of epochs to wait before resuming normal operation after lr has been reduced. | 
| min_lr | lower bound on the learning rate. |
