Abstract
Global Pooling (GP) is one of the important layers in deep neural networks.GP significantly reduces the number of model parameters by summarizing the feature maps and enables a reduction in the computational cost of training.The most commonly used GP methods are global max pooling (GMP) and global average pooling (GAP).The GMP method produces successful results in experimental studies but has a tendency to overfit training data and may not generalize well to test data.On the other hand, the GAP method takes into account all activations in the pooling region, which reduces the effect of high activation areas and causes a decrease in model performance.In this study, a GP method called global average of top-k max pooling (GAMP) is proposed, which returns the average of the highest k activations in the feature map and allows for mixing the two methods mentioned.The proposed method is compared quantitatively with other GP methods using different models, i.e., Custom and VGG16-based and different datasets, i.e., CIFAR10 and CIFAR100.The experimental results show that the proposed GAMP method provides better image classification accuracy than the other GP methods.When the Custom model is used, the proposed GAMP method provides a classification accuracy of 1.29% higher on the CIFAR10 dataset and 1.72% higher on the CIFAR100 dataset compared to the method with the closest performance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
