SCNet: Few-shot image classification via self-correlational and cross spatial-correlation attention by Congqing He, Ding Xu, Ke Gong, Fusen Guo, Dapeng Wei

“…Additionally, we design a Cross Spatial-Correlation Attention module to capture shared features between support and query images, generating an informative co-attention map that improves feature alignment across different images. Furthermore, we introduce a novel loss function that combines label-based classification loss and metric-based loss, which mitigates overfitting during meta-testing and enhances alignment of query embeddings with category prototypes. …”
