Deep learning

the batch size beyond which larger batches give diminishing gains in training speed, predicted by a measured gradient noise scale.

In deep learning, critical batch size refers to the batch size beyond which larger batches give diminishing gains in training speed, predicted by a measured gradient noise scale. This meaning comes from McCandlish (2018) in arXiv.[1]
