Researchers have identified a hidden failure mode when gradient modification techniques are combined with the Adam optimizer in continual learning scenarios. This issue, particularly prevalent with shared-routing projection methods, can lead to significant performance degradation, causing models to forget previously learned information. The problem stems from Adam's second-moment pathway, which can inflate effective learning rates when gradients are modified. A proposed solution, adaptive decoupled moment routing, routes modified gradients to the first moment while preserving second-moment statistics, successfully preventing performance collapse across various methods and scales.
