Non-convex optimization via non-reversible stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics

arXiv preprint, 2023.

In brief

Takes the non-reversible Langevin idea to the stochastic-gradient setting: a non-reversible drift added to stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics leaves the target distribution unchanged while speeding up both sampling and non-convex optimization, and the paper quantifies the improvement in the convergence guarantees and the generalization bounds of the solutions found.
