Semantic Class

Semantic class research focuses on understanding and leveraging the relationships between data points and their associated semantic labels, aiming to improve classification and knowledge discovery, particularly in challenging scenarios like zero-shot and few-shot learning. Current research emphasizes developing robust models that can handle noisy or incomplete data, often employing contrastive learning, attention mechanisms, and meta-learning techniques within various architectures including deep neural networks and vision-language models. This work is significant for advancing machine learning capabilities in open-world settings, enabling applications such as improved object recognition, novel class discovery in image and text data, and more effective handling of continually evolving datasets.
