arXiv:2603. 10485v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this work, we study the convergence properties of the Dual Space Preconditioned Gradient Descent, encompassing optimizers such as Normalized Gradient Descent and Gradient Clipping.
arXiv:2601. 07326v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper studies AdamW-style Shampoo, an effective variant of the classical Shampoo that won the external tuning track of the AlgoPerf neural network training competition.
arXiv:2310. 15976v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: signSGD is attractive in nonconvex optimization because it communicates sign-valued rather than full-precision gradients.
arXiv:2603. 04895v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Overparameterized ML models, including neural networks, typically induce underdetermined training objectives with multiple global minima.
arXiv:2608. 13467v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the Moreau--Yosida unadjusted Langevin algorithm (MYULA) for the nonsmooth composite target \[ \pi(dx)\propto \exp\{-f(x)-g(x)\}\,dx, \qquad x\in\mathbb R^d, \] where \(f\) is \(m\)-strongly convex with \(L_f\)-Lipschitz gradient and \(g\) is convex and \(G\)-Lipschitz.
arXiv:2605. 23391v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) for coupled multiphysics systems suffer systematic accuracy degradation as inter-equation coupling strengthens.
arXiv:2601. 18115v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the problem of learning a single neuron under standard squared loss in the presence of arbitrary label noise and group-level distributional shifts, for a broad family of covariate distributions.
arXiv:2608. 04382v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient descent has been of particular interest in modern machine learning beyond sole focus on optimization.
arXiv:2603. 25029v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study online convex optimization (OCO) with two-point bandit feedback against a non-anticipating adaptive adversary.
arXiv:2511. 19716v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) often slows in the late stage of training due to anisotropic curvature and gradient noise.
arXiv:2605. 18694v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Many tasks in modern machine learning are observed to involve heavy-tailed gradient noise during the optimization process.
arXiv:2606. 28573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern machine learning models are trained by optimizing high-dimensional non-convex empirical risk functions.
arXiv:2606. 02078v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The existing optimizers for deep neural networks (DNNs) typically rely on either the $\ell_2$ norm or the $\ell_\infty$ norm, resulting in optimizers that do not adapt well to substantial changes in curvature across parameter dimensions.
