Regularity-Aware Stochastic MGDA with Adaptive Conflict-Avoidant Update Direction Control
Short summary
This paper improves the convergence rate of stochastic multi-gradient descent (MGDA) for multi-objective learning by analyzing the Hölder continuity of conflict-avoidant update directions. The authors show the CA direction is 1/2-Hölder continuous in the worst case but becomes Lipschitz under regularity conditions, enabling their proposed MoRe method to improve convergence from O(T^{-1/4}) to O(T^{-1/2}). The algorithm switches between CA direction updates and linear scalarization based on gradient conflict magnitude.
