In this work, we propose a new method, Gradual Balanced Loss and Adaptive Feature Generator (GLAG) to alleviate imbalance. GLAG first learns a balanced and robust feature model with Gradual Balanced Loss, then fixes the feature model and augments the under-represented tail classes on the feature level with the knowledge from well-represented head classes. And the generated samples are mixed up with real training samples during training epochs. Gradual Balanced Loss is a general loss and it can combine with different decoupled training methods to improve the original performance. State-of-the-art results have been achieved on long-tail datasets such as CIFAR100-LT, ImageNetLT, and iNaturalist, which demonstrates the effectiveness of GLAG for long-tailed visual recognition.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.00452v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2203.00452v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"long-tail-learning","task_name":"Long-tail Learning"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[{"leaderboard":"/sota/long-tail-learning-on-cifar-100-lt-r-10","task":"Long-tail Learning","dataset":"CIFAR-100-LT (ρ=10)","model":"GLAG","rank_in_archive_order":14,"of":31,"metrics":{"Error Rate":"35.5"},"uses_additional_data":false},{"leaderboard":"/sota/long-tail-learning-on-cifar-100-lt-r-100","task":"Long-tail Learning","dataset":"CIFAR-100-LT (ρ=100)","model":"GLAG","rank_in_archive_order":24,"of":66,"metrics":{"Error Rate":"48.3"},"uses_additional_data":false}],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
