Zero-shot learning (ZSL) algorithms typically work by exploiting attribute correlations to be able to make predictions in unseen classes. However, these correlations do not remain intact at test time in most practical settings and the…

Verifying rumors on social media is critical for mitigating the spread of false information. The stances of conversation replies often provide important cues to determine a rumor's veracity. However, existing models struggle to jointly…
