Looking forward to presenting our poster at ICML this month!
"Studying K-FAC Heuristics by Viewing Adam through a Second-Order Lens" with @jmhernandez233 – what could we learn by applying heuristics from second-order optimisers to first-order methods?

2: "Adam through a Second-Order Lens" with Baiyu Su and @jmhernandez233 – applying K-FAC's damping and learning rate selection logic to Adam gives AdamQLR: an efficient hybrid optimiser whose default hyperparameters compete with tuned SGD/Adam

Delighted to share two new papers on arXiv!
1: "Series of Hessian-Vector Products for Tractable Saddle-Free Newton Optimisation of Neural Networks" with @cravingoxygen @jmhernandez233 – saddle-point avoiding, asymptotically exact second-order NN training

@fang_od Sorry I took so long to get back to you - yes, I'm coming, with 1 extra if there's still time to get extra tickets?
