Medium GrooveSquid.com (original content) Medium Difficulty Summary
This paper reviews recent advances in estimating the suitability of pre-trained models for specific target tasks without training them individually. The authors categorize existing methods into two realms: source-free model transferability estimation and source-dependent model transferability estimation, providing a comprehensive taxonomy and challenges for future research directions.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper looks at how to know if a pre-trained model is good for a specific task without having to train it from scratch. It groups different ways of doing this into two types: figuring out if a model works without looking at the source data, and using information from the source data to make an estimate. The authors explain these methods in detail and suggest what needs to be done next.
