class L2DecayRegularizer(WeightDecayRegularizer):
    r""" 
    Implement the L2 Weight Decay Regularization, which helps to prevent the model over-fitting.

    It can be set in :ref:`api_fluid_ParamAttr` or ``optimizer`` (such as :ref:`api_fluid_optimizer_SGDOptimizer` ). 
    When set in ``ParamAttr`` , it only takes effect for trainable parameters in this layer. When set in 
    ``optimizer`` , it takes effect for all trainable parameters. When set together, ``ParamAttr`` has 
    higher priority than ``optimizer`` .

        L2WeightDecay = reg\_coeff * parameter

        regularization_coeff(float, optional): regularization coeff. Default:0.0
