Augment it Maybe?: Improving Deep Vision Models with Adversarial Scene Text Augmentation

Image data augmentation has been regarded as a reliable and effective way to increase the data available for training. With the advent and rise of Generative AI, generative data augmentation has been shown to realize even better gains in performance for downstream tasks. However, these performance gains are often the cause of "extra information"...

Scattering based Scheme for Generation of Photonic Tree-Cluster States

Quantum repeaters are critical in the development of the quantum internet because they enable quantum communication over long distances. Third-generation quantum repeaters or one-way quantum repeaters are the most advanced quantum repeaters that do not require two-way com- munication between nodes. Borregaard et al. (2019) proposed an...
