The proposed Test-Time Augmentation (TTA) heuristic leverages data augmentation during testing to generate averaged output, demonstrating impressive experimental results. However, the theoretical underpinnings of TTA remain underexplored. This study aims to bridge this gap by providing theoretical guarantees for TTA and shedding light on its behavior.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Test-Time Augmentation (TTA) is a simple yet powerful technique that improves model performance during testing. By applying data augmentation techniques, like flipping or rotating images, TTA generates multiple outputs and averages them together. This study explains how TTA works and why it’s important.
