They could have called it ELESIUM with a lot less effort...

Although your approach to it much better, they may as well have called is XERXES by combining letters that are and aren't in the phrase with some permutation.

There is no link between the name "Evolved Sign Momentum" and "Lion". They can call the thing what they want, but they're making up the link.

Or SignUp. Even makes a good paper title: SignUp for faster training by evolving the learning algorithm.

Yeah, the acronym is very far fetched…

But at least the algorithm and how they got to it seems dope.

Maybe they need an algorithm that makes proper algorithm acronyms…

Your "maybe" is grossly unnecessary! Get an editor, sir!

Hahaha gotta love your terrible acronyms :)
