Sassha: Sharpness-aware Adaptive Second-order Optimization with Stable Hessian Approximation
ICML 2025poster
Approximate second-order optimization methods often exhibit poorer generalization compared to first-order approaches. In this work, we look into this issue through the lens of the loss landscape and find that existing second-order methods tend to converge to sharper minima compared to SGD. In respo…
