Search for a compact symbolic optimizer instead of selecting among fixed AdamW-like formulas. Encode optimizer programs as token sequences, learn a continuous variational representation of those sequences, and use a Gaussian-process Bayesian optimizer to propose promising update rules based on short neural-network training rollouts.
Replace a single shared quadratic stability constraint in a routed state-space model with a path-complete family of quadratic certificates indexed by a small graph. During architecture search or training, identify bottleneck certificate nodes whose transition inequalities are nearly tight, split only those nodes, and re-solve the certificate problem. This should permit larger per-mode state transitions than a common Lyapunov matrix while retaining bounded hidden-state dynamics for arbitrary…
Use the paper's inverse-temperature parameter to initialize networks containing m parallel depth-N branches. Choose branch count, depth, or an explicit aggregation scale so that beta = sqrt(2(N-1)/(n log m)) stays below the critical value sqrt(2), preventing the largest random branch from dominating the aggregate. This is applicable to residual multi-branch MLPs and other architectures whose block Jacobian is a sum of products.
Replace unconstrained per-frequency recurrent dynamics in a Fourier neural operator or spectral state-space model with oscillators initialized from the plasma dispersion relation \(\omega_k=\sqrt{\underline{b}^{2}+|k|^{2}}\). Each Fourier mode first undergoes a norm-preserving rotation at its prescribed frequency, while a small learned residual and optional nonnegative damping account for task-specific dynamics. This should reduce phase drift and exploding or vanishing activations when modeling…
Replace spectral-radius-only stabilization of a recurrent or state-space transition matrix with a numerical-range constraint. Penalize directions in which the Hermitian part of a rotated transition matrix has a large maximal eigenvalue, controlling nonnormal transient amplification and polynomial state propagation.
