No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Hierarchical graphs embed in hyperbolic space with lower distortion than in Euclidean space owing to its negative curvature. However, their gradient-based learning is hampered at large radii, where the Poincaré ball and the Lorentz hyperboloid models fail numerically. Polar coordinates avoid this problem, but the hyperbolic metric scales the angular step by the hyperbolic sine of the radius, freezing angular motion. We observe that this factor is a choice, silently fixed by existing implementations: the Euclidean tangent parametrization, for instance, uses the radius itself. We show that other choices are not only possible but preferable. They are endpoints of a one-parameter family of optimization preconditioners with curvatures from $-1$ to $0$, while the embedding remains at curvature $-1$. We show that since the Euclidean preconditioner rearranges a layout but refines it poorly, while an intermediate one refines far better once a layout is in place, combining them in two stages reduces the loss on real-world trees by 46-74% over the best single curvature.
