Improving Neural Network Training by Decoupling the Magnitude and Direction of Weight Vectors
Publisher summary· verbatim
arXiv:2606.25971v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Modern neural network training relies on optimizers such as Adam and Muon which act on each weight matrix as a single object. Yet every weight matrix carries two distinct quantities -- a \emph{magnitude} and a \emph{direction} -- and all optimizers
