  3. 17. Messing With The Gap: On The Modality Gap Phenomenon In Multimodal Contrastive Representation Learning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Industriell teknik

    Author : Mohammad Al-Jaff; [2023]
    Keywords : Multimodal machine learning; Representation learning; Self-supervised learning; contrastive learning; computer vision; computational biology; bioinformatics;

    Abstract : In machine learning, a sub-field of computer science, a two-tower architecture model is a specialised type of neural network model that encodes paired data from different modalities (like text and images, sound and video, or proteomics and gene expression profiles) into a shared latent representation space. However, when training these models using a specific contrastive loss function, known as the multimodalinfoNCE loss, seems to often lead to a unique geometric phenomenon known as the modality gap.

  5. 19. A parametric study of the static and dynamic performance of timber arch footbridges with different hanger configurations

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : ALEJANDRO GARCÍA GARCÍA; [2022]
    Keywords : Arch bridges; footbridge dynamics; critical load; bridge typology; parametric study;

    Abstract : The influence of the hanger configuration in the arch and deck bending moments under asymmetric loads is widely used nowadays for improved designs of arch bridges. In this work, by means of a parametric study, those hanger configurations that most efficiently increase both the natural frequencies and buckling factors are identified, simultaneously evaluating the dynamic and static performance of timber arch footbridges.
