New CAP-SAM method enhances neural network generalization

Researchers have introduced a new method called Curvature-Aware Adaptive Perturbation for SAM (CAP-SAM) to improve the generalization capabilities of deep neural networks. This technique modifies the perturbation radius used in Sharpness-Aware Minimization (SAM) by considering the local curvature of the loss landscape. By adaptively adjusting the perturbation, CAP-SAM aims to more effectively find robust minima, outperforming standard SAM and its variants on benchmark datasets like CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and ImageNet.

    One Size Does Not Fit All: Curvature-Aware Adaptive Perturbation for SAM

    arXiv:2610.20415v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Poor generalisation in deep neural networks is frequently associated with convergence to sharp minima. Sharpness-Aware Minimisation (SAM) improves generalisation of deep neural networks by minimising a combination of the training lo…
