SIMS: Scale-Invariant Merit-Function-Based Scalarization for Multi-Task Learning proposes a new scalarization method for multi-task learning that is invariant to the relative scales of task losses. By using a logarithmic transformation, SIMS converts the multi-objective problem into a single objective that preserves weak Pareto optimality and allows a smooth surrogate with controllable approximation error. Experiments on standard multi-task benchmarks show that SIMS consistently outperforms existing scalarization methods and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance.

arXiv:2606. 03904v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-objective optimization (MOO) underlies many machine learning problems, yet MOO solvers across the loss-balancing, gradient-balancing, and Pareto-based families almost universally hand their reconciled directions to Adam~\cite{kingma2015adam}.
