Fragmented References to ML Optimization Algorithms (Grafting, Shampoo, AdamW)
10d ago· 1 min readenInsight
Summary
This is a fragmented, incomplete excerpt listing references to optimization algorithms in machine learning research. It mentions techniques like grafting (Agarwal et al.), Shampoo optimizer with per-mode preconditioners (Gupta et al.), scalable Shampoo with iterative inverse-root methods (Anil et al.), and AdamW (Loshchilov and Hutter). The content is essentially a list of citations with brief descriptions, cut off mid-sentence.
