Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Train a standard model on a much larger dataset | ImageNet-trained vision models · 17 OOD datasets | OOD accuracy: 0.559 -> 0.829 | Helped |
| Pre-train a vision transformer on 14M images | ViT-L · 17 OOD datasets | OOD accuracy: 0.706 -> 0.733 | Helped |
| Use self-supervised learning rather than standard supervision | ImageNet-trained CNNs · OOD datasets | OOD accuracy | No clear effect |
| Use SimCLR's training augmentations in supervised training (ablation) | SimCLR-matched supervised baselines · OOD datasets | OOD accuracy | Helped |
| Increase adversarial-training strength (ablation) | ResNet-50 · 17 OOD datasets | OOD accuracy: 0.545 -> 0.501 | Hurt |
| Increase adversarial-training strength (ablation) | ResNet-50 · Cue conflict images | shape bias | Helped |
| Train on large-scale datasets | Standard CNNs · 17 OOD datasets | error consistency | Helped |
| Train a ResNet-50 using CLIP hard or soft labels (ablation) | ResNet-50 · 17 OOD datasets | OOD accuracy | No clear effect |
| Use CLIP's joint image-text loss with a ResNet-50 backbone (ablation) | CLIP · OOD datasets | OOD accuracy | Hurt |
