Deep Neural Network Ensemble
Deep neural network ensembles combine the predictions of multiple individual DNNs to improve accuracy, robustness, and uncertainty quantification compared to single models. Current research focuses on developing efficient ensemble methods, particularly for resource-constrained settings like edge devices and semi-supervised learning scenarios, exploring diverse ensemble architectures (e.g., heterogeneous models addressing different tasks), and leveraging techniques like knowledge distillation and Bayesian methods to enhance performance and reduce complexity. These advancements are significant for various applications, including improving the reliability of predictions in critical domains like healthcare and mitigating the vulnerability of DNNs to adversarial attacks.
