New mean-field model enhances neural network training with Consensus-Based Optimization

Researchers have developed a mean-field model for training two-layer neural networks using Consensus-Based Optimization (CBO). This approach, when combined with Adam, demonstrates faster convergence than CBO alone. The study also shows that CBO can be adapted for multi-task learning with reduced memory overhead. The mean-field models for both CBO and neural networks were confirmed to converge numerically. AI
