        -- <optimize_parameters>:           calculate losses, gradients, and update network weights.

            -- self.optimizers (optimizer list):    define and initialize optimizers. You can define one optimizer for each network. If two networks are updated at the same time, you can use itertools.chain to group them. See cycle_gan_model.py for an example.
