Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| apply weight decay on last-layer features H rather than all network weights (ablation) | ResNet18 · MNIST | test accuracy: 99.60 -> 99.57 | No clear effect |
| apply weight decay on last-layer features H rather than all network weights (ablation) | ResNet18 · CIFAR10 | test accuracy: 78.42 -> 77.92 | No clear effect |
| fix last-layer classifier as a Simplex ETF (ablation) | ResNet18/ResNet50 · MNIST, CIFAR10 | test accuracy | No clear effect |
| set feature dimension d=K instead of large d (ablation) | ResNet18/ResNet50 · MNIST, CIFAR10 | test accuracy | No clear effect |
| set feature dimension d=K instead of large d (ablation) | ResNet18 · CIFAR10 | parameter/memory cost: -20.70% | Helped |
| use different optimizers (SGD, Adam, LBFGS) | ResNet18 · CIFAR10 | test accuracy | Mixed |
