Category Specific Attention

Category-specific attention mechanisms aim to improve the performance of machine learning models by focusing processing on relevant features for each category of interest. Current research explores this through various approaches, including attention-based modules integrated into convolutional neural networks and transformers, and novel guidance techniques for diffusion models to enhance sample quality. These advancements are improving performance across diverse applications, such as image classification, object detection, and medical image segmentation, by enabling more efficient and accurate processing of complex data.
