This paper addresses few-shot semantic segmentation (FSS) guided by text, where we classify unseen novel classes using image and text references as in-context examples, without the need for training. We enhance the quality and stability of the segmentation masks generated by FSS by combining the cap…
The goal of *generalized* few-shot semantic segmentation (GFSS) is to recognize *novel-class* objects through training with a few annotated examples and the *base-class* model that learned the knowledge about the base classes. Unlike the classic few-shot semantic segmentation, GFSS aims to classify…
Geospatial machine learning is of growing importance in various global remote-sensing applications, particularly in the realm of vegetation monitoring. However, acquiring accurate ground truth data for geospatial tasks remains a significant challenge, often entailing considerable time and effort. Fo…
The recent emergence of Neuro-Symbolic Agent (NeSA) approaches to natural language-based interactions calls for the investigation of model-based approaches. In contrast to model-free approaches, which existing NeSAs take, learning an explicit world model has an interesting potential especially in th…
Text-based reinforcement learning agents have predominantly been neural network-based models with embeddings-based representation, learning uninterpretable policies that often do not generalize well to unseen games. On the other hand, neuro-symbolic methods, specifically those that leverage an inter…
Taking into account background knowledge as the context has always been an important part of solving tasks that involve natural language. One representative example of such tasks is text-based games, where players need to make decisions based on both description text previously shown in the game, an…
Abstractive summarization models often produce factually inconsistent summaries that are not supported by the original article. Recently, a number of fact-consistent evaluation techniques have been proposed to address this issue; however, a detailed analysis of how these metrics agree with one anoth…
Text-Based Games (TBGs) have emerged as important testbeds for reinforcement learning (RL) in the natural language domain. Previous methods using LSTM-based action policies are uninterpretable and often overfit the training games showing poor performance to unseen test games. We present SymboLic Act…
Deep reinforcement learning (RL) methods often require many trials before convergence, and no direct interpretability of trained policies is provided. In order to achieve fast convergence and interpretability for the policy in RL, we propose a novel RL method for text-based games with a recent neuro…
This paper describes a framework called MaestROBe It is designed to make the robots perform complex tasks with high precision by simple high-level instructions given by natural language or demonstration. To realize this, it handles a hierarchical structure by using the knowledge stored in the forms…
