• Abstract: In a classification task, dealing with text snippets and metadata usually requires dealing with multimodal approaches. When those metadata are textual, it is tempting to use them intrinsically with a pre-trained transformer, in order to leverage the semantic information encoded inside the model. This paper describes how to improve a humanitarian classification task by adding the crisis event type to each tweet to be classified. Based on additional experiments of the model weights and behavior, it identifies how the proposed neural network approach is partially over-fitting the particularities of the Crisis Benchmark, to better highlight how the model is still undoubtedly learning to use and take advantage of the metadata's textual semantics.

  We introduce CAST: Corpus-Aware Self-similarity Enhanced Topic modelling, a novel topic modelling method. We find self-similarity to be an effective metric to prevent functional words from acting as candidate topic words. Our approach significantly enhances the coherence and diversity of generated topics, as well as the topic model's ability to handle noisy data.

  Continual learning allows models to learn from new data while retaining previously learned knowledge. The semantic knowledge available in the label information of the images, offers important semantic information that can be related with previously acquired knowledge of semantic classes. We propose integrating semantic guidance within and across tasks by capturing semantic similarity using text embeddings.

  Keywords spotting (KWS) in historical documents is an important tool for the initial exploration of digitized collections. We propose ST-KeyS, a masked auto-encoder model based on vision transformers where the pretraining stage is based on the mask-and-predict paradigm. In the fine-tuning stage, the pre-trained encoder is integrated into a siamese neural network model that is fine-tuned to improve feature embedding from the input images.

  Vision-language models are pre-trained by aligning image-text pairs in a common space to deal with open-set visual concepts. To boost the transferability of the pre-trained models, recent works adopt fixed or learnable prompts. However, how and what prompts can improve inference performance remains unclear.

  This paper addresses the task of generating fluent descriptions by training on a non-uniform combination of data sources. Large-scale datasets with noisy image-text pairs provide a sub-optimal source of supervision. We propose to leverage and separate semantics and descriptive style through the incorporation of a style token and keywords extracted through a retrieval component.
