Towards Learning High-Precision Least Squares Algorithms with Sequence Models

ICLR 2025poster

This paper investigates whether sequence models can learn to perform numerical algorithms, e.g. gradient descent, on the fundamental problem of least squares. Our goal is to inherit two properties of standard algorithms from numerical analysis: (1) machine precision, i.e. we want to obtain solutions…
