Bendex launches weight-based training stability monitor

Bendex is a stability monitor that detects neural network training failures before they manifest in loss curves by tracking weight trajectory curvature. It uses information geometry to provide early warnings and automated interventions for diverging runs.

// ANALYSIS

–Tracks discrete curvature (kappa_t) to provide high-fidelity detection of instabilities across LLM and vision architectures.
–Automated three-phase correction (freezing, LR reduction, recovery) minimizes manual intervention during multi-day training runs.
–Lightweight implementation integrates with existing PyTorch or JAX loops in minutes without significant computational overhead.
–Attribution features help developers pinpoint specific failing layers or modules during divergence events.
–Deep theoretical foundations in information geometry suggest a more principled approach than standard heuristic-based alerts.
