Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes generating audio segments from a speech signal, generating latent representations that respectively correspond to the audio segments, the latent representations comprising a first subset and a second subset, generating quantized representations that respectively correspond to the latent representations, masking the second subset of the latent representations, using a machine-learning model to process the first subset of the latent representations and the masked second subset of the latent representations to generate contextualized representations that respectively correspond to the latent representations, pre-training the machine-learning model based on comparisons between (1) a subset of the contextualized representations that respectively correspond to the masked second subset of the latent representations and (2) a subset of the quantized representations that respectively correspond to the masked second subset of the latent representations, and training the pre-trained

Abstract: In one embodiment, a feature map of an image having h×w pixels and a patch having one or more pixels of the image are received. The patch has been processed by a first set of layers of a convolutional neural network and contains an object centered within the patch. The patch is then processed using the feature map and one or more pixel classifiers of a classification layer of a deep-learning model, where the classification layer includes h×w pixel classifiers, with each pixel classifier corresponding to a respective pixel of the patch. Each of the pixel classifiers used to process the patch outputs a respective value indicating whether the corresponding pixel belongs to the object centered in the patch.

Abstract: In one embodiment a plurality of patches of an image are processed, using a first set of layers of a convolutional neural network, to output a plurality of object proposals associated with the plurality of patches of the image. Each patch includes one or more pixels of the image. Each object proposal includes a prediction as to a location of an object in the respective patch. Using a second set of layers of the convolutional neural network, the plurality of object proposals outputted by the first set of layers are processed to generate a plurality of refined object proposals. Each refined object proposal includes pixel-level information for the respective patch of the image. The first layer in the second set of layers of the convolutional neural network takes as input the plurality of object proposals outputted by the first set of layers.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a plurality of patches of an image are processed using a first-pass of a first deep-learning model to generate object-level information for each of the patches. Each patch includes one or more pixels of the image. Using a second-pass of the first deep-learning model, a respective object proposal is generated for each of the plurality of patches of the image. The second-pass takes as input the first-pass output, and the generated respective object proposals comprise pixel-level information for each of the patches. Using a second deep-learning model, a respective score is computed for each object proposal. The second deep-learning model takes as input the first-pass output, and the object score includes a likelihood that the respective patch of the object proposal contains an entire object.
