New optimizers enhance tree tensor networks for machine learning tasks

Researchers have developed new stochastic Riemannian optimizers for tree tensor networks (TTNs), a type of model originating from quantum physics that shows promise for machine learning applications. These optimizers are designed for both parameter and quotient manifolds, incorporating adaptive and learning-rate-free strategies suitable for minibatch training. When applied to a hybrid CNN-TTN architecture, these methods demonstrated performance comparable to unconstrained optimization on datasets like Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR-10, and Imagenette, while also facilitating stable numerical compression.
