  • Large Stepsizes Accelerate Gradient Descent for Regularized Logistic Regression

    Large Stepsizes Accelerate Gradient Descent for Regularized Logistic Regression arXiv:2506.02336v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study gradient descent (GD) with a constant stepsize for $ell_2$-regularized logistic regression with linearly separable data. Classical theory suggests small stepsizes to ensure monotonic reduction of the optimization objective, achieving exponential convergence in $widetilde{mathcal{O}}(kappa)$ steps with $kappa$ being the condition…
