Two new research papers explore the Muon optimizer, an approach designed to better handle matrix-structured parameters in neural networks. The first paper introduces a matrix-aware geometry for Sharpness-Aware Minimization (SAM), combining a spectral inner perturbation with Muon for improved robustness and validation accuracy on ImageNet-1K. The second paper provides a theoretical convergence analysis of Muon, demonstrating its potential to outperform traditional gradient descent by leveraging the low-rank structure of Hessian matrices in neural network training.
