Practical Insights of Repairing Model Problems on Image Classification

Abstract: Additional training of a deep learning model can cause negative effects on the results, turning an initially positive sample into a negative one (degradation). Such degradation is possible in real-world use cases due to the diversity of sample characteristics. That is, a set of samples is a mixture of critical ones which should not be missed and less important ones. Therefore, we cannot understand the performance by accuracy alone. While existing research aims to prevent a model degradation, insights into the related methods are needed to grasp their benefits and limitations. In this talk, we will present implications derived from a comparison of methods for reducing degradation. Especially, we formulated use cases for industrial settings in terms of arrangements of a data set. The results imply that a practitioner should care about better method continuously considering dataset availability and life cycle of an AI system because of a trade-off between accuracy and preventing degradation.
