Understanding and inverse design of implicit bias in stochastic learning: a geometric perspective

ArXi:2601.06597v2 Announce Type: replace A key challenge in machine learning is to explain how learning dynamics select among the many solutions that achieve identical loss values in overparameterized models - a phenomenon known as implicit bias. Controlling this bias provides a direct mechanism on learned representations, which are central to interpretability, robustness, and reasoning in modern AI systems. Yet, despite its importance, existing explanations remain largely ad hoc and lack a unifying mechanism.
