Research reveals that deep learning models including CNNs, ResNets, and transformers exhibit a double descent phenomenon where performance improves, deteriorates, then improves again as model size, data size, or training time increases. This universal behavior can be mitigated through proper regularization, though the underlying mechanisms remain unclear and require further investigation.
