A new research paper titled "SGD at the Edge of Stability: Stochastic Stabilization with Large Learning Rates" explores the behavior of Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) in deep learning. The study provides theoretical convergence guarantees for SGD when applied to multiclass cross-entropy loss in linear classifiers and two-layer neural networks. It demonstrates that while SGD's stochasticity can lead to oscillations between unstable and stable regimes, the algorithm inherently self-stabilizes, ensuring convergence even with large learning rates.
