Long-Tailed Classification by Keeping the Good and Removing the Bad Momentum Causal Effect Kaihua T ang

Therefore, long-tailed classification is the key to deep learning at scale. However, existing methods are mainly based on re-weighting/re-sampling heuristics that lack a fundamental theory. In this paper, we establish a causal inference framework, which not only unravels the whys of previous methods, but also derives a new principled solution.
