abstract

A core issue with learning to optimize neural networks has been the lack of generalization to real world problems. To address this, we describe a system designed from a generalization-first perspective, learning to update optimizer hyperparameters instead of model parameters directly using novel features, actions, and a reward function. This system outperforms Adam at all neural network tasks including on modalities not seen during training. We achieve 2x speedups on ImageNet, and a 2.5x speedup on a language modeling task using over 5 orders of magnitude more compute than the training tasks.

The Importance of Encoder Choice:A Tabular-Image Study

cs.LG · 2026-07-08 · conditional · novelty 6.5

Tabular encoder choice reorders multimodal rankings, can erase apparent fusion gains, and requires non-vanilla extraction for in-context learning models to avoid train-test representation shift.
