A Mechanism Study of Delayed Loss Spikes in Batch-Normalized Linear Models
Peifeng Gao, Wenyi Fang, Yang Zheng +1
Delayed loss spikes have been reported in neural-network training, but existing theory mainly explains earlier non-monotone behavior caused by overly large fixed learning rates. We…

A Convergence Analysis of Adaptive Optimizers under Floating-point Quantization
Xuan Tang, Jichu Li, Difan Zou
The rapid scaling of large language models (LLMs) has made low-precision training essential for reducing memory, improving efficiency, and enabling larger models and datasets. Exis…
