Original Abstract Submitted
a computer-implemented method of classifying a sensor signal by a sensor signal encoder and a text encoder. the encoders are configured to encoder their inputs into a latent representation. the method includes: encoding the sensor signal to a first latent representation by the sensor signal encoder; generating a plurality of text prompts, wherein for each class several text prompts characterizing the corresponding class are instantiated; encoding the generated text prompts into second latent representations by the text encoder; determining a class query for each class by weighted averaging over the second representations corresponding to the same class; computing a similarity between the first latent representation and each of the class queries; assigning the sensor signal to the class with the highest similarity.
