Beyond Size and Class Balance: Alpha as a New Dataset Quality Metric for Deep Learning
Josiah D. Couch, Rima Arnaout, Ramy Arnaout
In deep-learning-based image classification, achieving high performance requires diverse training sets. However, the current best practice—maximizing dataset size and class balance—does not guarantee dataset diversity. We hypothesized that, for a given model architecture, perform…
