Contrastive Class-aware Adaptation for Domain Generalization

Mathieu Salzmann

Domain generalization (DG) tackles the problem of learning a model that generalizes to data drawn from a target domain that was unseen during training. A major trend in this area consists of learning a domain-invariant representation by minimizing the disc ...

Slim: Explicit Slot-Intent Mapping With Bert For Joint Multi-Intent Detection And Slot Filling

Boi Faltings, Fei Mi

Utterance-level intent detection and token-level slot filling are two key tasks for spoken language understanding (SLU) in task-oriented systems. Most existing approaches assume that only a single intent exists in an utterance. However, there are often mul ...

Surface Susceptibilities as Characteristic Models of Reflective Metasurfaces

Karim Achouri, Shourya Dutta Gupta, Ville Tuovi Tiukuvaara

While metasurfaces (MSs) are constructed from deeply subwavelength unit cells, they are generally electrically large and full-wave simulations of the complete structure are computationally expensive. Thus, to reduce this high computational cost, nonuniform ...
