1. A system comprising:
a hardware processing unit; and
a storage resource storing computer-readable instructions which, when executed by the hardware processing unit, cause the hardware processing unit to:
receive input data;
process the input data using a machine learning model having an encoding layer to obtain a result, at least the encoding layer having been trained to map first training examples having explicit labels and second training examples having inferred labels into a shared vector space; and
output the result.
