Stochastic convergence of parallel asynchronous adaptive first-order methods

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

A new class of asynchronous adaptive first-order optimization methods is introduced, comprising asynchronous variants of several popular algorithms. Versions of these methods using momentum and/or inexact normalization are also considered.

A unified convergence theory for adaptive first-order methods in the nonconvex case, including AdaNorm, full and diagonal AdaGrad and Muon

The paper introduces a unified framework for first‑order optimization algorithms applied to nonconvex unconstrained problems. It incorporates adaptively preconditioned gradients and covers popular methods such as full and diagonal AdaGrad, AdaNorm, and an adaptive variant of Muon. The framework supports heterogeneous geometries across variable groups and provides a fully stochastic global convergence analysis for all methods, with or without two types of momentum, under reasonable variance assumptions without requiring bounded stochastic gradients or small step sizes.

Stochastic Adaptive Gradient Descent Without Descent

arXiv:2509. 14969v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce a new adaptive step-size strategy for convex optimization with stochastic gradient that exploits the local geometry of the objective function only by means of a first-order stochastic oracle and without any hyper-parameter tuning.
