In this paper, researchers propose a novel approach to assessing pre-trained models for transfer learning. The existing methods focus on analyzing the features extracted by each pre-trained model or how well these features fit the target labels. Instead, the authors introduce the Distribution of Spectral Components (DISCO) framework that decomposes the features into singular values and investigates their contribution to fine-tuning performance. They develop an assessment method based on the distribution of spectral components, which measures the proportions of corresponding singular values. The proposed approach is flexible and can be applied to both classification and regression tasks.

This paper helps us find the best pre-trained model for a specific task without spending too much time fine-tuning it. It’s like finding the right tool for the job! By looking at how different parts of the model work together, we can choose the one that will perform well in our situation. The authors tested their method on several tasks and datasets and showed that it produces great results.
