arXiv:2605. 29547v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep learning optimization relies heavily on the assumption of smooth loss landscapes, a condition systematically violated by modern architectures due to non-smooth components such as ReLU activations and quantization operators.

arXiv:2608. 00737v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hard-constrained recurrent physics-informed networks (HRPINNs) embed known dynamics inside a recurrent numerical integrator and restrict a neural branch to learning only the residual dynamics that the first-principles model does not capture.

arXiv:2607. 05903v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present K-ABENA (K-Adaptive Backpropagation with Error-based N-exclusion Algorithm), a selective gradient computation framework that reduces per-iteration training cost by excluding a fraction of low-loss ("minor") observations from the backward pass.

arXiv:2606. 25971v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern neural network training relies on optimizers such as Adam and Muon which act on each weight matrix as a single object.

arXiv:2603. 28921v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The critical damping condition of the damped harmonic oscillator model of SGD with momentum (Qian, 1999) yields a momentum schedule with no tuned hyperparameters: mu(t) = 1 - 2*sqrt(alpha(t)).

arXiv:2607. 22444v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: For scale-invariant deep networks, Hyperball-style optimizers have shown strong performance in large-scale training by fixing the norms of matrix-valued parameters and normalizing updates.
