Can we use decreasing step size to replace mini-batch in SGD?
$begingroup$
As far as I know, mini-batch can be used to reduce the variance of the gradient, but I am also considering if we can achieve the same result if we use the decreasing step size and only single sample in each iteration? Can we compare the convergence rate of them?
