Tversky Neural Networks


Psychologically Plausible Deep Learning with Differentiable Tversky Similarity

Despite its psychological plausibility, this model relied on discrete set operations, making it incompatible with the differentiable, gradient-based optimization that underlies modern deep learning. Image Recognition: When adapting frozen ResNet-50 for classification tasks, using a Tversky projection layer instead of linear at the output (=Tversky-ResNet-50) led to accuracy improvements from 36.0% to 44.9% (NABirds) and from 57.4% to 62.3% (MNIST). Its fundamental operations are based on psychologically intuitive concepts of common and distinctive features, providing a built-in, transparent language for explaining model reasoning.
