Incremental variance estimation instead of smoothing in batch normalization  #1962

Description

@tlkvstepan

I think it might be nice to estimate variances using incremental algorithm instead of smoothing variances estimated in every batch.

  • In this case BN will work fine even with batch size of 1.
  • Estimated variance will be less biased when batch size is small.
