In deep regression, capturing the relationship among continuous labels in feature space is a fundamental challenge that has attracted increasing interest. Addressing this issue can prevent models from converging to suboptimal solutions across various regression tasks, leading improved performance, especially for imbalanced and under limited sample sizes. However, existing approaches often rely on order-aware representation learning or distance-based weighting. paper, we hypothesize linear...
