arXiv:2606. 01521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A central problem in machine learning is that models can achieve near-perfect training performance while generalizing substantially less well to unseen examples.
arXiv:2609. 30501v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Although bilevel optimization (BLO) has emerged as a powerful framework for addressing many complex and nested machine learning problems in recent years, most existing studies are confined to the lower-level strongly convex (LLSC) or lower-level generally convex (LLGC) settings (i.
The paper introduces a unified framework for first‑order optimization algorithms applied to nonconvex unconstrained problems. It incorporates adaptively preconditioned gradients and covers popular methods such as full and diagonal AdaGrad, AdaNorm, and an adaptive variant of Muon. The framework supports heterogeneous geometries across variable groups and provides a fully stochastic global convergence analysis for all methods, with or without two types of momentum, under reasonable variance assumptions without requiring bounded stochastic gradients or small step sizes.
arXiv:2609.13677v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern real application problems involve matrix-valued parameters, yet conventional optimizers treat them as vectors, thereby motivating matrix-aware...
