OR Else: A Differentiable Trust Region for Policy Optimization

Chinmay Rane, Kanishka Tyagi, Michael Manry

PPO and the GRPO baseline studied here use clipped surrogate objectives whose favorable-direction saturation introduces an abrupt change in the scalar objective's derivative. We as…

Making Sigmoid-MSE Great Again: Output Reset Challenges Softmax Cross-Entropy in Neural Network Classification

Kanishka Tyagi, Chinmay Rane, Ketaki Vaidya +3

This study presents a comparative analysis of two objective functions, Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Softmax Cross-Entropy (SCE) for neural network classification tasks. While SCE c…

Automated Sizing and Training of Efficient Deep Autoencoders using Second Order Algorithms

Kanishka Tyagi, Chinmay Rane, Michael Manry

We propose a multi-step training method for designing generalized linear classifiers. First, an initial multi-class linear classifier is found through regression. Then validation e…

Optimal Input Gain: All You Need to Supercharge a Feed-Forward Neural Network

Chinmay Rane, Kanishka Tyagi, Sanjeev Malalur +2

Linear transformation of the inputs alters the training performance of feed-forward networks that are otherwise equivalent. However, most linear transforms are viewed as a pre-proc…
