Over the past decade, deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved remarkable success on complex machine-learning tasks, yet the theoretical foundations of their performance remain incomplete. From a statistical viewpoint, a natural question is: can DNNs attain feature-learning and prediction consistency comparable to that of classical models?
The paper introduces S$^3$F-Net, a dual‑branch network that fuses spatial and spectral representations for medical image classification. It combines a deep spatial CNN with a shallow spectral encoder, SpectraNet, which uses a learnable SpectralFilter layer to process the full Fourier spectrum efficiently. Evaluated on four medical imaging datasets, S$^3$F-Net consistently outperforms spatial‑only baselines, achieving state‑of‑the‑art accuracy on BRISC2025 and surpassing deeper models on the Chest X‑Ray Pneumonia dataset.
The paper presents a compact underwater acoustic classification framework that integrates multi-representation feature engineering, temporal statistical pooling, and lightweight convolutional architectures for acoustic time-frequency and cochlear representations. Experiments on the ShipsEar dataset show a two-layer CNN achieving a macro F1 of 0.9918 and an RBF-SVM reaching 0.9883, but recording provenance issues limit verification of generalisation. When evaluated on the DeepShip dataset with recording-level partitioning, a 157K-parameter CNN attains a macro F1 of 0.7226, while a larger ResNet18 does not improve validation performance, underscoring the need for representation-aware design and rigorous evaluation for deployable systems.
