Contributions summary:Jingkang's commits primarily focus on adding and modifying functions within the `openood/postprocessors/mds_tools.py` and `openood/trainers/udg_trainer.py` files. These modifications suggest a focus on implementing and integrating new techniques, specifically involving Mahalanobis distance scoring and clustering methods, within the generalized out-of-distribution detection framework. The user also appears to be involved in refactoring and integrating model training procedures related to these techniques, which also included defining various feature types and dimensional reduction. This indicates involvement in both back-end development and potential MLOps tasks.
