Lvq Treatment For Zero-Shot Learning, Firat İsmai̇loğlu
Lvq Treatment For Zero-Shot Learning, Firat İsmai̇loğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In image classification, there are no labeled training instances for some classes, which are therefore called unseen classes or test classes. To classify these classes, zero-shot learning (ZSL) was developed, which typically attempts to learn a mapping from the (visual) feature space to the semantic space in which the classes are represented by a list of semantically meaningful attributes. However, the fact that this mapping is learned without using instances of the test classes affects the performance of ZSL, which is known as the domain shift problem. In this study, we propose to apply the learning vector quantization (LVQ) algorithm …
