Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| use multiple source networks instead of the best single source | MCW · CIFAR-100 apple vs fish, 5-shot | accuracy: 69.0 -> 78.1 | Helped |
| MCW instead of SVM on multi-source features | Multi-source features · CIFAR-100 apple vs fish, 1-shot | accuracy: 64.7 -> 69.0 | Helped |
| MCW instead of SVM on multi-source features | Multi-source features · CIFAR-100 apple vs fish, 20-shot | accuracy: 81.5 -> 81.7 | No clear effect |
| MCW instead of SVM on multi-source features | Multi-source features · Stanford Dogs 5-way, 5-shot | accuracy: 38.9 -> 41.6 | Helped |
| MCW instead of SVM on multi-source features | Multi-source features · Tiny ImageNet 5-way, 5-shot | accuracy: 42.5 -> 47.4 | Helped |
| use multiple sources instead of best single source | MCW · Tiny ImageNet 5-way, 5-shot | accuracy: 33.9 -> 47.4 | Helped |
| use multiple sources instead of best single source | MCW · Stanford Dogs 5-way, 5-shot | accuracy: 38.2 -> 41.6 | Helped |
| add least-favoured source task (camel vs can) (ablation) | MCW with 9 sources · CIFAR-100 apple vs fish, 5-shot | accuracy: 76.8 -> 78.1 | No clear effect |
| add most-favoured source task (dolphin vs elephant) (ablation) | MCW with 9 sources · CIFAR-100 apple vs fish, 5-shot | accuracy: 73.0 -> 78.1 | Helped |
| MCW instead of SVM on best single source | Single-source features · CIFAR-100 apple vs fish, 10-shot | accuracy: 70.4 -> 67.0 | Hurt |
