System and method for consensus-based representation and error checking for neural networks

Abstract

A system includes a determination component that determines output for successively larger neural networks of a set; and a consensus component that determines consensus between a first neural network and a second neural network of the set. A linear chain of increasingly complex neural networks trained on progressively larger inputs is utilized (e.g., increasingly complex neural networks is generally representative of increased accuracy). Outputs of progressively networks are computed until a consensus point is reached—where two or more successive large networks yield a same inference output. At such point of consensus the larger neural network of the set reaching consensus can be deemed appropriately sized (or of sufficient complexity) for a classification task at hand.
