This PR adds optional SyncBatchNorm support to the ImageNet training script.
What’s included:
Added new CLI argument:
--sync-bnIf both (a) distributed training is enabled and (b)
--sync-bnis passed,BatchNorm layers are converted to SyncBatchNorm using:
nn.SyncBatchNorm.convert_sync_batchnorm(model)
Conversion happens before DistributedDataParallel wrapping, as required.
Why this is useful:
SyncBatchNorm improves performance and stability in multi-GPU distributed training
and is commonly used in ImageNet training recipes. Adding this option makes the
example more complete and aligned with standard training practices.
Testing:
--sync-bnis passed.Addresses Issue #793.
