New LieBN framework enhances batch normalization for manifold-valued data

Researchers have introduced LieBN, a novel framework for Riemannian Batch Normalization (RBN) designed to operate over Lie groups. This approach aims to address limitations in existing Riemannian normalization methods, which are often specific to certain manifolds or struggle with normalizing manifold-valued sample distributions. LieBN leverages left- and right-invariant metrics within Lie groups to provide theoretical guarantees for controlling Riemannian mean and variance. The framework has been demonstrated across nine different geometries, including the Symmetric Positive Definite (SPD) manifold, rotation matrices, and correlation matrices, with experiments validating its effectiveness.
