New paper details Geometric Moment Contraction for Stochastic Nesterov Acceleration

A new paper published on arXiv details a method called Geometric Moment Contraction (GMC) for improving Stochastic Nesterov Acceleration. The research introduces a direct criterion for synchronous L^p contraction under mean strong monotonicity and stochastic L^p Lipschitz continuity, which accommodates infinite-variance gradients. Additionally, a power-Lyapunov argument establishes a broader step-size interval using only finite pth gradient moments. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient training of machine learning models by improving optimization algorithms.

    Geometric Moment Contraction for Stochastic Nesterov Acceleration

    arXiv:2609.31303v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study geometric moment contraction (GMC) of the constant-parameter stochastic Nesterov recursion \[ Y_k=\Theta_k+\beta(\Theta_k-\Theta_{k-1}),\qquad \Theta_{k+1}=Y_k-\gamma G(Y_k,X_{k+1}). \] Under mean strong monotonicity and st…
