CORE-STACK+: Meta-Learning for Deep Stacked Generalization

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

CORE-STACK+ is a new meta‑learning framework for deep stacked generalization that tackles two key problems in heterogeneous vision ensembles: prediction‑space multicollinearity and calibration collapse. It introduces a four‑step preconditioning pipeline—kernelized redundancy filtering, a lightweight differentiable meta‑feature gate, a spectrum‑adaptive ridge penalty, and a Laplace‑approximate Bayesian blender—to jointly improve conditioning and calibration. Across six vision benchmarks, CORE‑STACK+ boosts accuracy, reduces model count and inference cost, and significantly lowers expected calibration error compared to existing methods.

Vertical Fusion: Condensing Internal Representations for Robust ViT Classification

arXiv:2607. 10391v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite exposing rich intermediate representations, Vision Transformers (ViTs) are almost exclusively utilized as black-box feature extractors, where only the last layer is considered for downstream tasks.

DUA-D2C: Dynamic Uncertainty Aware Method for Overfitting Remediation in Deep Learning

The paper introduces DUA-D2C, a Dynamic Uncertainty-Aware Divide2Conquer method that improves overfitting remediation in deep learning. It refines the traditional Divide2Conquer approach by dynamically weighting subset models based on a composite score of accuracy and normalized prediction entropy, allowing the central model to learn more from generalizable and confident edge models. The authors provide theoretical justification, show reduced model variance, and demonstrate significant generalization gains across image, audio, and text benchmarks, even when combined with standard regularizers like Dropout.
