SUMMARY:[CML Seminar] Paola Cascante-Bonilla: More from Less: Learning with
  Limited Annotated Data in Vision and Language
LOCATION:Donald Bren Hall 4011
DESCRIPTION:Paola Cascante-Bonilla\, Postdoctoral Associate\, University of
  Maryland Institute for Advanced Computer Studies (UMIACS)\n\nTitle: More 
 from Less: Learning with Limited Annotated Data in Vision and Language\n\n
 Abstract: Despite the impressive results of deep learning models\, modern 
 large-scale systems are required to be trained using massive amounts of ma
 nually annotated or freely available data on the Internet. But this data i
 n the wild is insufficient to learn specific structural patterns of the wo
 rld\, and existing large-scale models still fail on common sense tasks req
 uiring compositional inference. This talk will focus on answering three fu
 ndamental questions: (a) How can we create systems that can learn with lim
 ited annotated data and adapt to new tasks and novel criteria? (b) How can
  we create systems able to encode real-world concepts with granularity in 
 a robust manner? (c) Is it possible to create such a system with alternati
 ve data\, complying with privacy protection principles and avoiding cultur
 al bias? I will conclude with my future plans to continue exploring hyper-
 realistic synthetic data generation techniques and the expressiveness of g
 enerative models to train multimodal systems able to perform well in real-
 world scenarios.\n\nhttps://cml.ics.uci.edu/seminars/2024-03-11-paola-casc
