Stochastic Weight Averaging boosts data augmentation in deep learning

Researchers have explored Stochastic Weight Averaging (SWA) as a method to enhance data augmentation in deep learning, offering a more cost-effective alternative to training large ensembles. Their analysis, which approximates the training trajectory with an Ornstein--Uhlenbeck process, suggests that SWA on augmented data can provide an additional boost in equivariance beyond standard SWA performance gains. These findings were validated through experiments on various models across computer vision and graph classification tasks, demonstrating effectiveness with both discrete and continuous symmetries.
