Training ideas

Curricula, sampling schedules, pseudo-labeling and multi-task mixing, with the standard training recipe as the control.

Phase-Aware Bias-Energy Trust Region

Use the envelope's phase transition to choose whether clipping should primarily control update energy or preserve the raw gradient and reduce clipping bias. In the energy-dominated regime, regulate the retained update energy; in the bias-dominated regime, regulate the removed-gradient residual and monitor rare outliers explicitly.

Laplacian-Coherence Graph Minibatches

Replace uniform node minibatches in a GNN with a coreset selected from a small random candidate set using local Laplacian-column coherence. Select nodes whose connectivity signatures are least redundant with already selected nodes, while retaining inverse-probability weights for unbiased loss estimates. This should improve coverage of weakly connected graph clusters and preserve smooth graph signals at the same batch size.
