HARD-POSITIVE PROTOTYPICAL NETWORKS FOR FEW-SHOT CLASSIFICATION

Hard-Positive Prototypical Networks for Few-Shot Classification

Prominent prototype-based classification (PbC) approaches, such as Prototypical Networks (ProtoNet), use the average of samples within a class as the class prototype.In these methods LOTION which we call Mean-PbC, a discriminant classifier is defined based on the minimum Mahalanobis distance from class prototypes.It is well known that if the data o

p38 MAPK signaling in postnatal tendon growth and remodeling.

Tendon is a dynamic tissue whose structure and function is influenced by mechanical loading, but little is known about the fundamental mechanisms that regulate tendon growth and remodeling in vivo.Data from cultured tendon fibroblasts indicated that the p38 MAPK pathway plays an important role in tendon fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthes
