It orthogonalizes the momentum matrix, which forces every singular value to one. The authors argue this has two costs. It gives as much weight to noisy, small-singular-value directions as to informative ones. It also keeps the weight spectra… ## Co-authors here 5 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Lei Hsiung](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/lei-hsiung/) ×2 - [Tianyu Pang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tianyu-pang/) ×2 - [Pin-Yu Chen](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/pin-yu-chen/) - [Tsung-Yi Ho](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tsung-yi-ho/) - [Zihang Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zihang-liu/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2026/) - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 6 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [5 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yaoqing-yang/cited-by/).
