Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In current classification tasks, an important method to improve accuracy is to pre-train the model using a large-scale domain-specific dataset. However, many tasks such as writer identification (writerID) lack suitable large-scale datasets in practical scenarios. To address this issue, this paper proposes a method that can improve prediction accuracy without relying on significant pre-training but leveraging the diversity of probability distributions predicted by multiple networks, and enhancing the top-1 accuracy through complementary post-processing. Specifically, top-k distributions are sampled from the multiple probability mass functions separately. When the distribution differences of top-k are maximized, the intersection other than the correct category can be narrowed down. Finally, the correct target with suboptimal probability can be rectified by the only intersection. Furthermore, our method has exhibited an intriguing trait during experimentation. Its prediction accuracy enhances concurrently with the incorporation of novel SOTA methods, ultimately surpassing the performance of these new methods.
