Beyond Backbone Backpropagation: A Decoupled Strategy for Efficient Transfer Learning
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
arXiv:2607.13043v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning models achieve state-of-the-art image classification but face deployment challenges due to computational costs and energy demands. We propose a lightweight training strategy that adapts normalization layers of the model to the new domain and decouples feature extraction from classifier optimization, reducing overhead by precomputing features only once. A redesigned classifier head with margin-based weighted loss further minimizes…
