arXiv:2606. 28879v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The adaptive moment estimation algorithm, known as Adam, is widely used in modern machine learning, owing to its low per-iteration complexity and strong empirical performance.

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: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.
