Logit Distillation on Manifolds: Mapping by Learning

arXiv:2606. 00771v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A simple way to improve the performance of almost any machine learning model is not to train a single but several models with diverse algorithms which will make slightly distinct kinds of predictions and errors on the same data, and thus improve the average predictions and robustness.
