Transfer of pretrained model weights substantially improves semi-supervised image classification
(Springer, 2020)Deep neural networks produce state-of-the-art results when trained on a large number of labeled examples but tend to overfit when small amounts of labeled examples are used for training. Creating a large number of labeled ... -
A comparison of machine learning methods for cross-domain few-shot learning
(Springer, 2020)We present an empirical evaluation of machine learning algorithms in cross-domain few-shot learning based on a fixed pre-trained feature extractor. Experiments were performed in five target domains (CropDisease, EuroSAT, ... -
On the generation of compressible mirror-mode fluctuations in the inner heliosheath
(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020)Measurements made with the Voyager 1 spacecraft indicate that significant levels of compressive fluctuations exist in the inner heliosheath. Some studies have already been performed with respect to the mirror-mode instability ... -
