"""Toy PBT problem for benchmarking adaptive learning rate.
The goal is to optimize this trainable's accuracy. The accuracy increases
fastest at the optimal lr, which is a function of the current accuracy.
The optimal lr schedule for this problem is the triangle wave as follows.
Note that many lr schedules for real models also follow this shape:
best lr
^
| /\
| / \
| / \
| / \
------------> accuracy
In this problem, using PBT with a population of 2-4 is sufficient to
roughly approximate this lr schedule. Higher population sizes will yield
faster convergence. Training will not converge without PBT.
