In the below example taken from Keras documentation, I want to understand how grads is computed. Does the gradient grads corresponds to the average gradient computed using the batch (x_batch_train, y_batch_train)? In other words, does the algorithm computes the gradient, with respect to each variable, using every sample in the mini batch and then average them to get grads?
for epoch in range(epochs):
print("\nStart of epoch %d" % (epoch,))
# Iterate over the batches of the dataset.
for step, (x_batch_train, y_batch_train) in enumerate(train_dataset):
# Open a GradientTape to record the operations run
# during the forward pass, which enables auto-differentiation.
with tf.GradientTape() as tape:
# Run the forward pass of the layer.
# The operations that the layer applies
# to its inputs are going to be recorded
# on the GradientTape.
logits = model(x_batch_train, training=True) # Logits for this minibatch
# Compute the loss value for this minibatch.
loss_value = loss_fn(y_batch_train, logits)
# Use the gradient tape to automatically retrieve
# the gradients of the trainable variables with respect to the loss.
grads = tape.gradient(loss_value, model.trainable_weights)
# Run one step of gradient descent by updating
# the value of the variables to minimize the loss.
optimizer.apply_gradients(zip(grads, model.trainable_weights))
