arXiv:2607. 19544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce RELTA-SGLD, a taming scheme that stabilizes superlinear stochastic-gradient updates while reducing unnecessary suppression of the original learning drift.
We introduce RELTA-SGLD, a taming scheme that stabilizes superlinear stochastic-gradient updates while reducing unnecessary suppression of the original learning drift. A threshold determines where the taming turns on, while a relative-growth principle derived from the one-step Lyapunov stability condition determines the required taming strength.
arXiv:2607. 08104v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a cornerstone of modern optimization.
arXiv:2601. 12238v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we provide a comprehensive theoretical analysis of Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) and its momentum variants (Polyak Heavy-Ball and Nesterov) for tracking time-varying optima under strong convexity and smoothness.

arXiv:2608. 03001v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unit excitation (UE) is a common assumption in stochastic saddle avoidance: the stochastic error must have a uniformly positive component along every direction, in expectation.
We study the problem of sampling from target distributions whose potentials are simultaneously non-smooth, subject to superlinear gradient growth, and non-convex. We introduce the Subgradient Tamed Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (SG-TULA), a discretisation of the Langevin diffusion that operates directly on subgradients, without relying on computationally demanding smoothing procedures.
arXiv:2602. 10204v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce MVN-Grad (Momentum on Variance-Normalized Gradients), an Adam-style optimizer that improves stability and performance by combining two complementary ideas: variance-based normalization and momentum applied after normalization.
