Variational Approach for Efficient KL Divergence Estimation in Dirichlet Mixture Models
Samyajoy Pal, Christian Heumann
This study tackles the efficient estimation of Kullback-Leibler (KL) Divergence in Dirichlet Mixture Models (DMM), crucial for clustering compositional data. Despite the significan…
A tailored Handwritten-Text-Recognition System for Medieval Latin
Philipp Koch, Gilary Vera Nuñez, Esteban Garces Arias +4
The Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities aims to digitize its Medieval Latin Dictionary. This dictionary entails record cards referring to lemmas in medieval Latin, a low-re…
Classifying multilingual party manifestos: Domain transfer across country, time, and genre
Matthias Aßenmacher, Nadja Sauter, Christian Heumann
Annotating costs of large corpora are still one of the main bottlenecks in empirical social science research. On the one hand, making use of the capabilities of domain transfer all…
How Different Is Stereotypical Bias Across Languages?
Ibrahim Tolga Öztürk, Rostislav Nedelchev, Christian Heumann +4
Recent studies have demonstrated how to assess the stereotypical bias in pre-trained English language models. In this work, we extend this branch of research in multiple different…
Using interpretable boosting algorithms for modeling environmental and agricultural data
Fabian Obster, Christian Heumann, Heidi Bohle +1
We describe how interpretable boosting algorithms based on ridge-regularized generalized linear models can be used to analyze high-dimensional environmental data. We illustrate thi…
Multimodal Deep Learning
Cem Akkus, Luyang Chu, Vladana Djakovic +14
This book is the result of a seminar in which we reviewed multimodal approaches and attempted to create a solid overview of the field, starting with the current state-of-the-art ap…
