Check out MODEL SELECTOR, a framework for label-efficient selection of pretrained classifiers. We reduce the labeling cost by up to 94.15% to identify the best model.

Ever wondered why presenting more facts can sometimes *worsen* disagreements, even among rational people? 🤔

It turns out, Bayesian reasoning has some surprising answers - no cognitive biases needed! Let's explore this fascinating paradox quickly ☺️
