The paper presents optimizations for Sparse Oblique (SPO) forests in Google’s Yggdrasil Decision Forests, addressing training speed issues caused by runtime sampling of sparse linear feature combinations. By fixing inefficiencies and introducing two new methods—hierarchical AVX2/AVX-512 vectorized histogram filling and runtime‑dynamic histograms—the authors achieve 2–5× speedups for both Gradient Boosted Trees and Random Forests, bringing SPO‑RF training time on par with axis‑aligned RFs. Extensive evaluation on 19 datasets, including up to 10.5 million rows and 1.6 million features, demonstrates these improvements without compromising accuracy.
arXiv:2606. 26337v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Gradient Boosted Decision Trees (GBDT), exemplified by LightGBM, spend a dominant fraction of training time -- typically 65-70% -- constructing per-feature histograms.

arXiv:2608. 03111v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Double descent is commonly studied by scaling an explicit capacity parameter, such as neural-network width.
Gradient Boosted Decision Trees (GBDT), exemplified by LightGBM, spend a dominant fraction of training time -- typically 65-70% -- constructing per-feature histograms. Existing approaches such as random feature subsampling (feature_fraction) discard features without regard for their predictive utility.

arXiv:2606. 15314v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Industrial retrofit planning depends on structured operational data rather than free text: planners must estimate whether a newly registered prototype will require a retrofit, which retrofit package it will need, and how long the work will take.
