Abstract

En 中文
As deep learning (DL) continues to advance, effective feature extraction from large-scale data remains crucial for enhancing model performance. To leverage the advantages of the frequency domain, such as concentrated signal energy, prominent data features, and rich detailed characteristics, this paper proposes a novel frequency-domain feature extraction method. However, existing frequency component selection algorithms often struggle to adapt to diverse tasks, tend to yield only locally optimal solutions, and require prolonged processing times. To overcome these limitations, we introduce the Adaptive Fast Frequency Selection (AFFS) algorithm, which seamlessly integrates a frequency component selection factor layer into DL models to identify globally optimal frequency combinations suited to various downstream tasks. We further analyze the relationship between selected frequency components and model performance, providing theoretical guarantees regarding optimality, robustness, and generalization error bounds. Moreover, a fast selection procedure is developed to exploit the empirically observed rapid convergence of the selection-factor ranking, significantly accelerating the selection process. Extensive experiments on five datasets, ten DL models, and two subsequent tasks demonstrate that AFFS achieves superior performance: even when the input data size is reduced to only 10% of the original frequency features, model classification accuracy improves by approximately 1%, while the early stopping mechanism shortens the selection process by about 80%.
