arXiv:2606. 08783v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Orthogonalized momentum updates, as used in Muon-style optimizers, have recently shown strong empirical stability in large-scale deep learning.
arXiv:2603. 09923v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Exponential moving averages (EMAs) are a central component of widely used adaptive optimizers such as Adam.
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.
arXiv:2406. 13041v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Lower-bound analyses for nonconvex strongly-concave minimax optimization problems have shown that stochastic first-order algorithms require at least $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-4})$ sample complexity to find an $\varepsilon$-stationary point.
arXiv:2605. 18528v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A growing lesson from neural network optimization is that optimizer design should respect how the model is parametrized.
arXiv:2607. 15412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-objective learning (MOL) aims to optimize multiple objectives simultaneously.
arXiv:2607. 12360v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The cooldown phase of a warmup-stable-decay (WSD) learning-rate schedule, now a default in large-model pretraining, lowers the final training loss in some settings and does nothing in others.
arXiv:2608. 04607v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimization methods are the standard instruments for the training of deep neural networks (DNNs).
arXiv:2608. 12925v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Momentum-based optimizers are widely used in modern deep learning, yet the relations among momentum recursion, update geometry, and acceleration remain only partially understood.
arXiv:2607. 27383v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We establish the first convergence guarantees for the plain vector-form \emph{Adam} optimizer under heavy-tailed stochastic noise.
arXiv:2607. 08104v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is a cornerstone of modern optimization.
arXiv:2606. 15702v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern deep learning optimization features heterogeneous parameter structures, noisy gradients, and highly nonconvex landscapes, posing significant challenges for both algorithm design and theoretical analysis.
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.
