Zero-shot Cross-Linguistic Learning of Event Semantics
Typologically diverse languages offer systems of lexical and grammatical aspect that allow speakers to focus on facets of event structure in ways that comport with the specific communicative setting and discourse constraints they face. In this paper, we look specifically at captions of images across Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, German, Russian, and Turkish ...

Gaussian Visual-Linguistic Embedding for Zero-Shot Recognition [PDF]
An exciting outcome of research at the intersection of language and vision is that of zeroshot learning (ZSL). ZSL promises to scale visual recognition by borrowing distributed semantic models learned from linguistic corpora and turning them into visual recognition models.
