This paper deals with deep transductive learning, and proposes TransBoost as a procedure for fine-tuning any deep neural model to improve its performance on any (unlabeled) test set provided at training time. TransBoost is inspired by a large margin principle and is efficient and simple to use. The ImageNet classification performance is consistently and significantly improved with TransBoost on many architectures such as ResNets, MobileNetV3-L, EfficientNetB0, ViT-S, and ConvNext-T. Additionally we show that TransBoost is effective on a wide variety of image classification datasets.
