Geometric analysis fundamentally distinguishes between extrinsic and intrinsic perspectives. The dominant paradigm in current 3D representation learning relies on either extrinsic spatial structures or high-level semantics, struggling to capture the essence of shape identity and underlying manifold …
Dialogue representation and understanding aim to convert conversational inputs into embeddings and fulfill discriminative tasks. Compared with free-form text, dialogue has two important characteristics, hierarchical semantic structure and multi-facet attributes. Therefore, directly applying the pret…
Building Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) robust to Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) errors is an essential issue for various voice-enabled virtual assistants. Considering that most ASR errors are caused by phonetic confusion between similar-sounding expressions, intuitively, leveraging the pho…
Contrastive learning (CL) has achieved astonishing progress in computer vision, speech, and natural language processing fields recently with self-supervised learning. However, CL approach to the supervised setting is not fully explored, especially for the natural language understanding classificatio…
Traditional Exemplar-SVMs (ESVM) require millions of negative samples to establish a linear exemplar detector. However, Exemplar Linear Discriminant Analysis (ELDA) can achieve similar performance while avoid negative samples mining. To construct a strong object classifier, Multiple Instance Learnin…
