They iteratively modify and resolve linear programs to conduct a depth-first search from any node in the search tree. Existing divers rely on generic decision rules that fail to exploit structural commonality between similar problem instances that often arise in practice.

(Liu and Nocedal, 1989). Similar efforts have been made for Polyak stepsizes (Berrada et al., 2020; Loizou et al., 2021), in addition to new methods which combine distance to optimality with online learning convergence bounds (Cutkosky et al., 2023; Classically-inspired methods, however, have generally struggled to gain traction in deep learning.
