Semantic Guidance
Semantic guidance is a rapidly developing field focusing on improving the performance and robustness of various machine learning models by incorporating semantic information, often derived from text or pre-trained models, to guide the learning or generation process. Current research emphasizes applications across diverse areas, including image processing (e.g., super-resolution, inpainting, fusion), natural language processing (e.g., mitigating LLM vulnerabilities), and multi-object tracking, often employing diffusion models, transformers, and contrastive learning techniques. This approach enhances model accuracy, controllability, and generalization capabilities, leading to significant improvements in various applications ranging from autonomous driving to medical image analysis.
