Falcon Perception

Aviraj Bevli, Sofian Chaybouti, Yasser Dahou +6

Perception-centric systems are typically implemented with a modular encoder-decoder pipeline: a vision backbone for feature extraction and a separate decoder (or late-fusion module…

MIX : a Multi-task Learning Approach to Solve Open-Domain Question Answering

Sofian Chaybouti, Achraf Saghe, Aymen Shabou

This paper introduces MIX, a multi-task deep learning approach to solve open-ended question-answering. First, we design our system as a multi-stage pipeline of 3 building blocks: a…
