New benchmark shows deep learning generalization measures are regime-dependent

A new benchmark study revisits the challenge of predicting deep learning model generalization before target-test evaluation, focusing on settings with controlled covariate shift rather than independent and identically distributed (IID) data. Researchers found that the effectiveness of generalization measures is highly dependent on the specific regime, such as image classifiers evaluated under various corruptions and perturbations like those in CIFAR-10-C/P. The study suggests that model selection should not rely solely on measures favored by IID evaluations, but rather treat generalization measures as regime-dependent ranking signals whose utility must be assessed for the intended corruption or perturbation setting.

IMPACT Findings suggest that model selection strategies need to adapt to specific data corruption or perturbation settings, rather than relying on IID-based measures.

    Generalization Measures under Controlled Covariate Shift: A Regime-Aware Benchmark

    arXiv:2602.01718v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Predicting generalization from quantities available before target-test evaluation remains a central challenge in deep learning. The systematic benchmark of Jiang et al. (2020) evaluated many generalization measures, but it focus…
