af.MultiStartProdigy runs the Prodigy update rule via optax.contrib.prodigy. Prodigy is a separately published method, not part of Optax's own contribution, so a user running that search owes it a citation alongside optax rather than instead of it.

  • files/citations.bib — add @inproceedings{prodigy} (Mishchenko & Defazio, ICML 2024, PMLR 235, 35779–35804), placed after optax.
  • docs/general/citations.md — note it in the ## JAX section, with the bibtex block and links to the reference implementation and preprint.

Cites the peer-reviewed ICML version rather than the arXiv preprint. Verified against optax.contrib._prodigy, whose own module docstring names the paper.

Docs only — no code paths touched.

af.MultiStartProdigy is a learning-rate-free search that runs the Prodigy update
rule through optax.contrib.prodigy. Prodigy is a published method in its own
right, not part of Optax's own contribution, so a user running that search owes
it a citation alongside optax rather than instead of it.

Add the ICML 2024 entry under the key `prodigy` and say so in the JAX section of
the citations page.
