StoSignSGD resolves SignSGD divergence on non-smooth objectives via structural stochasticity, matching optimal convex rates and improving non-convex bounds while delivering 1.44-2.14x speedups in FP8 LLM pretraining.
GNMR is a gradient-norm-based controller that maps local stability signals to budgeted recovery actions to stabilize low-precision LLM training while preserving quality.
Production-scale empirical study of a 63-node 504-GPU cluster reports multi-signal failure detection needs, low checkpoint bandwidth utilization, heavy-tailed node exclusions, and 2.7x higher success for auto-retry chains.
PowLU replaces SwiGLU with a rational-power activation to reduce outlier amplification and numerical instability during large-scale LLM pre-training while matching performance.
