January 2025 performance summary for SwanLab/Swan. Focused on cleaning up the SGD training loop through a targeted refactor to improve readability, maintainability, and extensibility. Delivered a cohesive set of changes that rename costFunction to objectiveFunction, restructure SGD data flow, and separate data handling and loss computation. Also removed SGD-specific data containers, migrating them to a centralized loss function (Sh_Loss_Func), with criteria checks moved to a dedicated function and inline comments to guide future refactors. This groundwork enhances testability, reduces coupling, and enables safer experimentation with the SGD workflow.
