1. I2DFormer+: Learning Image to Document Summary Attention for Zero-Shot Image Classification 

   Naeem, Muhammad Ferjad; Xian, Yongqin; Gool, Luc Van; et al. (2024)

   International Journal of Computer Vision

   Despite the tremendous progress in zero-shot learning (ZSL), the majority of existing methods still rely on human-annotated attributes, which are difficult to annotate and scale. An unsupervised alternative is to represent each class using the word embedding associated with its semantic class name. However, word embeddings extracted from pre-trained language models do not necessarily capture visual similarities, resulting in poor zero-shot ...

2. Exacerbated summer European warming not captured by climate models neglecting long-term aerosol changes 

   Schumacher, Dominik L.; Singh, Jitendra; Hauser, Mathias; et al. (2024)

   COMMUNICATIONS EARTH & ENVIRONMENT

   In much of western-central Europe, summer temperatures have surged three times faster than the global mean warming since 1980, yet this is not captured by most climate model simulations. Here we disentangle this warming into thermodynamic and circulation-induced contributions, and show that the latter is the main reason why numerically simulated warming is weaker than observed. Crucially, regional climate models from the Coordinated ...

4. Assessment of Atmospheric and Surface Energy Budgets Using Observation-Based Data Products 

   Mayer, Michael; Kato, Seiji; Bosilovich, Michael; et al. (2024)

   SURVEYS IN GEOPHYSICS

   Accurate diagnosis of regional atmospheric and surface energy budgets is critical for understanding the spatial distribution of heat uptake associated with the Earth's energy imbalance (EEI). This contribution discusses frameworks and methods for consistent evaluation of key quantities of those budgets using observationally constrained data sets. It thereby touches upon assumptions made in data products which have implications for these ...

5. Utilizing CO₂ as a strategy to scale up direct air capture may face fewer short-term barriers than directly storing CO₂ 

   Brazzola, Nicoletta; Moretti, Christian; Sievert, Katrin; et al. (2024)

   Environmental Research Letters

   Direct air capture (DAC) is increasingly recognized as a necessary puzzle piece to achieve the Paris climate targets. However, the current high cost and energy intensity of DAC act as a barrier. Short-term strategies for initial deployment, technology improvement, and cost reduction are needed to enable large-scale deployment. We assess and compare two near-term pathways leading to the same installed DAC capacity and thus yielding the ...
