New SHANG++ method enhances AI model training robustness against noise

Researchers have developed two new accelerated stochastic gradient descent methods, SHANG and SHANG++, designed to improve stability and convergence under multiplicative noise. SHANG is a semi-implicit discretization that enhances stability, while SHANG++ incorporates a damping correction for faster convergence and greater noise robustness. Both methods are proven to be effective for convex and strongly convex objectives, with SHANG++ demonstrating consistent performance across various applications, including deep learning tasks like training ResNet-34, where it maintained accuracy close to noise-free settings. AI

IMPACT Improves training efficiency and robustness for deep learning models, potentially enabling more stable training with noisy data.

    SHANG++: Robust Stochastic Acceleration under Multiplicative Noise

    arXiv:2603.09355v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Under the multiplicative noise scaling (MNS) condition, original Nesterov acceleration is provably sensitive to noise and may diverge when gradient noise overwhelms the signal. In this paper, we develop two accelerated sto…
