The proposed Rockafellian Relaxation Method (RRM) is a novel loss reweighting technique that enhances neural network training to achieve robust performance in various classification tasks. The method can tolerate modest amounts of labeling errors, which are common in datasets, and even mitigate the effects of adversarial perturbations. RRM’s architecture-independent approach makes it applicable to both computer vision and natural language processing (sentiment analysis) tasks.

Neural networks are amazing at recognizing patterns, but they can be tricked if the data is flawed. This happens when people make mistakes while labeling things or when there’s noise in the data. When this happens, the neural network’s performance goes down. Scientists have come up with a new way to train these networks so they can work better even if the data is wrong. They call it Rockafellian Relaxation Method (RRM). It helps the network do well on different tasks like recognizing pictures or understanding sentences.
