class CollaborativeOptimizer(DecentralizedOptimizerBase):
    """
    An optimizer that performs model updates after collaboratively accumulating a target (large) batch size across peers

    These optimizers use DHT to track how much progress did the collaboration make towards target batch size.
    Once enough samples were accumulated, optimizers will compute a weighted average of their statistics.

    :note: This optimizer behaves unlike regular pytorch optimizers in two ways:

      * calling .step will periodically zero-out gradients w.r.t. model parameters after each step
      * it may take multiple .step calls without updating model parameters, waiting for peers to accumulate enough samples


    :param opt: a standard pytorch optimizer, preferably a large-batch one such as LAMB, LARS, etc.
    :param dht: a running hivemind.DHT daemon connected to other peers
    :param prefix: a common prefix for all metadata stored by CollaborativeOptimizer in the DHT
    :param target_batch_size: perform optimizer step after all peers collectively accumulate this many samples
    :param batch_size_per_step: before each call to .step, user should accumulate gradients over this many samples
    :param min_refresh_period: wait for at least this many seconds before fetching new collaboration state
    :param max_refresh_period: wait for at most this many seconds before fetching new collaboration state
    :param default_refresh_period: if no peers are detected, attempt to fetch collaboration state this often (seconds)
    :param expected_drift_peers: assume that this many new peers can join between steps
    :param expected_drift_rate: assumes that this fraction of current collaboration can join/leave between steps
    :note: The expected collaboration drift parameters are used to adjust the frequency with which this optimizer will
      refresh the collaboration-wide statistics (to avoid missing the moment when to run the next step)
    :param bandwidth: peer's network bandwidth for the purpose of load balancing (recommended: internet speed in mbps)
    :param step_tolerance: a peer can temporarily be delayed by this many steps without being deemed out of sync
    :param performance_ema_alpha: smoothing value used to estimate this peer's performance (training samples per second)
    :param averaging_expiration: peer's requests for averaging will be valid for this many seconds
    :param metadata_expiration: peer's metadata (e.g. samples processed) is stored onto DHT for this many seconds
    :param averaging_timeout: if an averaging step hangs for this long, it will be cancelled.
    :param scheduler: if specified, use this scheduler to update optimizer learning rate
    :param reuse_grad_buffers: if True, use model's .grad buffers for gradient accumulation.
      This is more memory efficient, but it requires that the user does *NOT* call model/opt zero_grad at all
    :param accumulate_grads_on: if specified, accumulate gradients on this device. By default, this will use the same
     device as model parameters. One can specify a different device (e.g. 'cpu' vs 'cuda') to save device memory at
     the cost of extra time per step. If reuse_gradient_accumulators is True, this parameter has no effect.
    :param client_mode: if True, runs training without incoming connections, in a firewall-compatible mode
    :param kwargs: additional parameters forwarded to DecentralizedAverager
    :note: If you are using CollaborativeOptimizer with lr_scheduler, it is recommended to pass this scheduler
      explicitly into this class. Otherwise, scheduler may not be synchronized between peers.
