Transformation Robustness

Transformation robustness in machine learning aims to create models that accurately classify data even when subjected to various transformations like rotations or translations. Current research focuses on developing architectures, such as capsule networks employing equivariant convolutions and novel routing algorithms, that inherently possess this robustness, as well as on data augmentation and input transformation techniques to enhance model resilience against adversarial attacks. These advancements are crucial for improving the reliability and generalizability of machine learning models in real-world applications where input data is often subject to variations and noise.
