Although many context-aware neural machine translation models have been proposed to incorporate contexts in translation, most of those models are trained end-to-end on parallel documents aligned in sentence-level. Because only a few domains…
Semantic segmentation is still a challenging task for parsing diverse contexts in different scenes, thus the fixed classifier might not be able to well address varying feature distributions during testing. Different from the mainstream…
