 * For every 1,000 iterations, we test the learned net on the validation data.
 * We set the initial learning rate to 0.01, and decrease it every 100,000 iterations (about 20 epochs).

 * The network will be trained with momentum 0.9 and a weight decay of 0.0005.
 * For every 10,000 iterations, we will take a snapshot of the current status.
