A new paper proposes a re-evaluation of global average pooling (GAP) in image classifiers, suggesting that these models can be interpreted as multi-instance learners. The research indicates that even when an image-level prediction is incorrect, the underlying spatial class evidence is often retained and recoverable. This perspective allows for the decomposition of image-level logits into a prediction grid, offering a diagnostic tool to reveal spatial class information previously obscured by GAP. AI
