Closed-Form Steepest Descent Direction toward Flat Minima: Reducing Upper Bounds on the Loss Hessian Eigenspectrum in Neural Networks

arXiv:2606.28662v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The flatness hypothesis suggests that flatness of the loss landscape, as measured by the eigenvalues of the loss Hessian, correlates with better neural network generalization. While various algorithms reduce these eigenvalues, most focus on procedural design, leaving it
