A new study published on arXiv investigates how different neural network architectures cope with temporal distribution shift, a phenomenon where real-world data changes over time, degrading model performance. The research systematically compared various model families, including multilayer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and Transformer-based encoders, across image classification, text classification, and text regression tasks. Findings indicate that architectures relying on highly specific features tend to degrade faster, while those using broader, more stable representations, like pretrained encoders, exhibit greater robustness to these temporal shifts.
