• Abstract summary: We propose Contrastive Learning with Label Distance (CLLD) for learning contrastive classes. CLLD ensures the flexibility within the subtle differences that lead to different label assignments. Our experiments suggest that the learned label distance relieve the adversarial nature of interclasses.

• Abstract: Existed pre-trained models have achieved state-of-the-art performance on various text classification tasks. These models have proven to be useful in learning universal language representations. However, the semantic discrepancy between similar texts cannot be effectively distinguished by advanced pre-trained models, which have a great influence on the performance of hard-to-distinguish classes. To address this problem, we propose a novel Contrastive Learning with Label Distance (CLLD) in this work. Inspired by recent advances in contrastive learning, we specifically design a classification method with label distance for learning contrastive classes. CLLD ensures the flexibility within the subtle differences that lead to different label assignments, and generates the distinct representations for each class having similarity simultaneously. Extensive experiments on public benchmarks and internal datasets demonstrate that our method improves the performance of pre-trained models on classification tasks. Importantly, our experiments suggest that the learned label distance relieve the adversarial nature of interclasses.

  In cross-lingual named entity recognition, self-training is commonly used to bridge the linguistic gap.

Our proposed method, namely ContProto mainly comprises two components: (1) contrastive self-training and (2) prototype-based pseudo-labeling.

  Mask proposal models have significantly improved the performance of zero-shot semantic segmentation. The use of a background' embedding during training in these methods is problematic as the resulting model tends to over-learn and assign all unseen classes as the background class instead of their correct labels. This paper proposes novel class enhancement losses to bypass the use of the background embbedding during training, and simultaneously exploit the semantic relationship between text embeddings and mask proposals by ranking the similarity scores.

We propose unbiased Dense Contrastive Visual-Linguistic Pretraining to replace the region regression and classification with cross-modality region contrastive learning.
