用平滑更新方向改进加速优化，提升深度学习训练稳定性。

Lookahead-based acceleration methods, such as Nesterov's momentum, are widely used in optimization, but they often become unreliable in deep learning training mainly due to stochastic gradient noise and non-convex loss landscapes. In particular, standard lookahead relies on short-horizon update signals (e.g., differences between consecutive iterates), which are inherently noisy and can lead to unstable extrapolation directions. This work revisits Nesterov's acceleration from a trajectory perspective and argues that effective acceleration in deep learning should harness the low-frequency trends of optimization trajectories rather than extrapolating noisy one-step updates. Leveraging this insight, we propose EMA-Nesterov, a simple modification that replaces the standard Nesterov's lookahead direction with an exponential moving average (EMA) of parameter updates. This yields a stabilized lookahead direction that captures and harnesses the evolving trend of the training trajectory through a low-pass filter, while remaining adaptive to progressive changes via the geometric weighting structure of EMA. We show that EMA-Nesterov retains a theoretical accelerated convergence rate in convex problems that is analogous to Nesterov's accelerated gradient method. Furthermore, we provide empirical evidence on language model pre-training to verify that EMA-Nesterov is broadly applicable across a range of fine-tuned base optimizers, including Adam, SOAP, Muon, as well as complex optimizers that achieve state-of-the-art performance on optimization benchmarks (NanoGPT). Compared to prior lookahead methods, EMA-Nesterov achieves better performance by avoiding the instability of short-horizon lookahead and the non-adaptivity of long-horizon lookahead.
