A new paper introduces the "stable signal principle" to explain how machine learning models converge during retraining, even when their influence on the data is substantial. This principle posits that a model's convergence is guided by a small, model-independent component of the prediction target, such as an item's intrinsic quality. The research demonstrates that with appropriate regularization, repeated risk minimization can geometrically converge towards this stable signal, offering new insights into the dynamics of performativity and language model training on generated data.
