1//! FastGRNN training pipeline with knowledge distillation
2//!
3//! This module provides a complete training infrastructure for the FastGRNN model:
4//! - Adam optimizer implementation
5//! - Binary Cross-Entropy loss with gradient computation
6//! - Backpropagation Through Time (BPTT)
7//! - Mini-batch training with validation split
8//! - Early stopping and learning rate scheduling
9//! - Knowledge distillation from teacher models
10//! - Progress reporting and metrics tracking
