arXiv:2602. 02431v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: It is folklore that reusing training data more than once can improve the statistical efficiency of gradient-based learning.

arXiv:2310. 15976v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: signSGD is attractive in nonconvex optimization because it communicates sign-valued rather than full-precision gradients.

arXiv:2409. 03682v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning new tasks by leveraging prior experience is a fundamental trait of intelligent systems.

arXiv:2607. 20769v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning-enabled decision systems often use offline data or computation to reduce online compute cost.

arXiv:2607. 16261v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern optimizers combine gradients from the current mini-batch with historical optimization state, such as momentum or adaptive moments.

arXiv:2606. 19411v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Selecting a small, diverse, high-quality subset from a massive pool of candidates is a recurring primitive in modern machine learning -- data curation and coreset selection for training and fine-tuning large models, active-learning batch acquisition, prompt and exemplar selection for in-context learning, retrieval diversification, and experimental design.

arXiv:2605. 28335v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables multiple clients to collaboratively train models without sharing raw data, but it is highly vulnerable to Byzantine attacks.
By Shiyuan Zuo, Jiashuo Li, Rongfei Fan, Han Hu, Jie Xu
arXiv:2604. 24012v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Federated learning enables a population of clients to collaboratively train machine learning models without exchanging their raw data, but standard algorithms such as FedAvg suffer from slow convergence and high communication and memory costs in heterogeneous, resource-constrained environments.

arXiv:2608. 12009v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bregman proximal stochastic gradient (BPSG) methods bring variance-reduced composite optimization to objectives whose geometry is poorly captured by Euclidean smoothness.
By Chenhan Jin, Shengze Xu, Binghui Xie, Kaiwen Zhou, Fan Jia, James Cheng, Tieyong Zeng
arXiv:2606. 10706v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Resource constraints increasingly determine what can be trained, fine-tuned, and deployed in large language models (LLMs), yet efficiency is often studied through isolated techniques rather than as an interacting system of limits.

arXiv:2603. 24002v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) for high-dimensional and high-order partial differential equations (PDEs) are primarily constrained by the $\mathcal{O}(d^k)$ spatial derivative complexity and the $\mathcal{O}(P)$ memory overhead of backpropagation (BP).
By Zhangyong Liang, Huanhuan Gao
arXiv:2607. 20548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Higher-order optimizers such as Muon and SOAP offer faster convergence than AdamW, but their computational cost and numerical stability challenges have limited adoption at scale.
