Majority voting over LLMs is widely assumed to benefit from diversity, and diversity measures are used to choose which models to combine. We ask whether five such measures track diversity or mainly re-express capability, auditing them as predictors of majority-vote gain over the…
LLM-as-a-judge is widely used to provide feedback and selection signals in closedloop regeneration, but this use remains insufficiently validated. We study it in table recognition, where deterministic TEDS evaluation provides a controlled testbed, using FinTabNet and OmniDocBench…
Schedule-Free methods have attracted growing interest for alleviating the burden of designing and tuning a learning rate scheduler, while matching and sometimes even outperforming optimizers with tuned schedulers. Despite their strong empirical results, their convergence theory i…
In general, an ensemble classifier is more accurate than a single classifier. In this study, we propose an ensemble classifier called the kernel Fisher discriminant analysis forest (KFDA Forest), which is a tree-based ensemble method that applies KFDA. To promote diversity, boots…
