Abstract
A multilinear domain-specific domain generalization (MDSDG) approach that utilizes information stored in multilinear indices of data domains to improve machine learning. In particular—based on limited sample size(s) in observed scenarios—an array of models is jointly trained, which advantageously are generalized to a new, unseen scenario, where only domain descriptions in the form of multilinear indices are available.
