🤖 AI Summary
In non-injective regression, multi-output models heavily rely on pre-specified probability distributions and manually engineered prior knowledge. To address this, we propose a data-driven cycle-consistency framework that jointly optimizes a forward model Φ: X→Y and a backward model Ψ: Y→X, incorporating a cycle-consistency loss L_cycle = ℓ(Y, Φ(Ψ(Y))) to establish a generation–verification closed loop—without assuming output distributions or designing explicit rules. Our key innovation lies in dynamically compressing the solution space to enable unsupervised learning, thereby substantially reducing human intervention. Evaluated on synthetic and simulated datasets, the method achieves cycle reconstruction errors below 0.003 and improves key evaluation metrics by approximately 30% over baselines. It significantly enhances model generalizability, adaptability, and capability in modeling non-injective mappings.

📝 Abstract
To address the challenges posed by the heavy reliance of multi-output models on preset probability distributions and embedded prior knowledge in non-injective regression tasks, this paper proposes a cycle consistency-based data-driven training framework. The method jointly optimizes a forward model Φ: X to Y and a backward model Ψ: Y to X, where the cycle consistency loss is defined as L _cycleb equal L(Y reduce Φ(Ψ(Y))) (and vice versa). By minimizing this loss, the framework establishes a closed-loop mechanism integrating generation and validation phases, eliminating the need for manual rule design or prior distribution assumptions. Experiments on normalized synthetic and simulated datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a cycle reconstruction error below 0.003, achieving an improvement of approximately 30% in evaluation metrics compared to baseline models without cycle consistency. Furthermore, the framework supports unsupervised learning and significantly reduces reliance on manual intervention, demonstrating potential advantages in non-injective regression tasks.
