New losses achieve Neural Collapse faster in supervised learning

Researchers have introduced new methods, NTCE and NONL, to improve supervised classification by achieving Neural Collapse (NC) more efficiently. These techniques address limitations in existing paradigms like cross-entropy and supervised contrastive learning. By treating supervised learning as prototype learning on a hypersphere, the new losses enable faster convergence to NC and yield significant improvements in transfer learning and robustness, especially under class imbalance.

    Neural Collapse by Design: Learning Class Prototypes on the Hypersphere

    arXiv:2605.20302v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Supervised classification has a theoretical optimum, Neural Collapse (NC), yet neither of its two dominant paradigms reaches it in practice. Cross entropy (CE) leaves radial degrees of freedom unconstrained and converges to a de…
