The Unified Balance Theory of Second-Moment Exponential Scaling Optimizers in Visual Tasks

arXiv:2405.18498v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: We have identified a potential method for unifying first-order optimizers through the use of variable Second-Moment Exponential Scaling(SMES). We begin with back propagation, addressing classic phenomena such as gradient vanishing and explosion, as well as issues related to dataset sparsity, and introduce the theory of balance in optimization. Through this theory, we suggest that SGD and adaptive optimizers can be unified under a broader inference, employing variable moving exponential scaling to achieve a balanced approach within a generalized formula for first-order optimizers. We conducted tests on some classic datasets and networks to confirm the impact of different balance coefficients on the overall training process.
