LyAm: Robust Non-Convex Optimization for Stable Learning in Noisy EnvironmentsElmira Mirzabeigi, Sepehr Rezaee, Kourosh Parand
Training deep neural networks, particularly in computer vision tasks, often suffers from noisy gradients and unstable convergence, which hinder performance and generalization. In this paper, we propose LyAm, a novel optimizer that integrates Adam's adaptive moment estimation with Lyapunov-based stability mechanisms. LyAm dynamically adjusts the learning rate using Lyapunov stability theory to enhance convergence robustness and mitigate training noise. We provide a rigorous theoretical framework proving the convergence guarantees of LyAm in complex, non-convex settings. Extensive experiments on like as CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 show that LyAm consistently outperforms state-of-the-art optimizers in terms of accuracy, convergence speed, and stability, establishing it as a strong candidate for robust deep learning optimization.

BridgeNet: A Hybrid, Physics-Informed Machine Learning Framework for Solving High-Dimensional Fokker-Planck EquationsElmira Mirzabeigi, Rezvan Salehi, Kourosh Parand
BridgeNet is a novel hybrid framework that integrates convolutional neural networks with physics-informed neural networks to efficiently solve non-linear, high-dimensional Fokker-Planck equations (FPEs). Traditional PINNs, which typically rely on fully connected architectures, often struggle to capture complex spatial hierarchies and enforce intricate boundary conditions. In contrast, BridgeNet leverages adaptive CNN layers for effective local feature extraction and incorporates a dynamically weighted loss function that rigorously enforces physical constraints. Extensive numerical experiments across various test cases demonstrate that BridgeNet not only achieves significantly lower error metrics and faster convergence compared to conventional PINN approaches but also maintains robust stability in high-dimensional settings. This work represents a substantial advancement in computational physics, offering a scalable and accurate solution methodology with promising applications in fields ranging from financial mathematics to complex system dynamics.
