Deep learning models with a large number of parameters have achieved exceptional performance, thanks to effective regularization techniques like data augmentation.
While data augmentation is widely used in classification tasks, its application in regression problems has been less explored.
A novel approach called Curvature-Enhanced Manifold Sampling (CEMS) is introduced for regression tasks, which leverages second-order data manifold representation for efficient sampling.
CEMS shows superior performance in various datasets and scenarios, with minimal computational overhead, as demonstrated through evaluations and comparisons with existing methods.
