arXiv:2606. 24586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning approaches to biometric verification are commonly trained by optimizing indirect objectives, creating a misalignment between the optimization process and the primary evaluation metric, typically the Equal Error Rate (EER).
ScoreMix is a self‑contained synthetic data generation method that improves recognition tasks by mixing class‑conditioned scores along reverse diffusion trajectories, thereby creating hard synthetic samples without external resources. The approach shows that selecting classes far apart in the discriminator’s embedding space yields larger performance gains, up to 3% more improvement than proximity‑based selection. Across eight public face recognition benchmarks, ScoreMix boosts accuracy by up to 7 percentage points, demonstrating robustness and practicality without hyperparameter tuning.
VICAL is a framework for long‑tailed visual recognition that focuses on reducing prediction variance rather than increasing expert diversity. It combines Self‑Consistency Learning, which smooths the loss landscape and mitigates overfitting on tail classes, with Deep Ensemble Distillation, which encourages low‑frequency semantic agreement across experts. Experiments on CIFAR‑LT, ImageNet‑LT, and iNaturalist 2018 demonstrate that VICAL consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods.
The paper introduces CoLT-Drive, a 3,536-sample counterfactual long‑tail benchmark for evaluating decision‑level driving affordance prediction, which tests whether models can infer how rare objects affect an ego vehicle’s high‑level actions. It also proposes KPA, a knowledge‑preserving adaptation framework that combines structured prompting, expert merging, and a regime‑aware LoRA mixture‑of‑experts module to improve small VLMs on driving tasks. Experiments show KPA achieves 60.8% pair accuracy on CoLT‑Drive, outperforming the Qwen3‑VL‑2B baseline and LoRA SFT while keeping competitive in‑domain performance.
arXiv:2607. 07500v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Time series classification (TSC) is dominated by a two-stage paradigm: train a feature encoder -- either from scratch on the target dataset or via pretraining on large corpora -- and then fit a task-specific classifier on top.
The paper introduces FedGRC, a federated learning framework that enhances both global recognition and personalization for heterogeneous clients. It combines Consensus‑Guided Representation Learning, Multilayer Metric Synthesis, and Support‑Adaptive Shrinkage Personalization to address failures on rare or unseen classes. Experiments on CIFAR‑10, CIFAR‑100, and the FedRS dataset show that FedGRC outperforms 21 baseline methods, improving global accuracy and personalization floors by over 2% in several settings.
