在计算机视觉中,多标签分类(包括零击的多标签分类)是具有许多真实应用程序的重要任务。在本文中,我们提出了一种新颖的算法,对齐双模态分类器(ADDS),其中包括一个双模式解码器(DM-DECODER),具有视觉和文本特征之间的对齐方式,用于多标签分类任务。此外,我们设计了一种简单但有效的方法,称为金字塔 - 福音,以提高分辨率高的输入的性能。在标准的多标签基准数据集(MS-Coco和NUS范围内)进行的广泛实验表明,我们的方法显着胜过以前的方法,并为常规多标签分类,零发射的多标签提供最先进的性能分类和一种称为单一标签分类的极端情况,其中在单标签数据集(Imagenet-1K,Imagenet-21K)上训练的模型在多标签的模型(MS-Coco和NUS范围内)进行了测试。我们还分析了视觉文本一致性如何有助于提出的方法,验证DM码头的重要性,并证明了金字塔 - 反向视觉变压器的有效性。

在低标签制度中,解决图像的多标签识别(MLR)是许多现实世界应用的一项艰巨任务。最近的工作学会了文本和视觉空间之间的一致性,以补偿图像标签不足,但由于可用的MLR注释量有限,因此失去了准确性。在这项工作中,我们利用数百万辅助图像文本对预测的文本和视觉特征的牢固对齐,并提出双背景优化(dualCoop)作为部分标签MLR和零发射MLR的统一框架。 DualCoop用类名来编码正面和负面的上下文,作为语言输入的一部分(即提示)。由于DualCoop仅在验证的视觉语言框架上引入了非常轻松的开销,因此它可以迅速适应具有有限的注释甚至看不见的类别的多标签识别任务。对两个挑战性低标签设置的标准多标签识别基准测试的实验证明了我们方法比最新方法的优势。

现实世界的识别系统在实践中经常遇到许多看不见的标签。为了识别这种看不见的标签,多标签的零光学习(ML-ZSL)着重于通过预先训练的文本标签嵌入(例如,手套)传输知识。但是,这种方法仅利用语言模型利用单极知识,同时忽略了图像文本对固有的丰富语义信息。取而代之的是,最近开发的基于开放式摄影的方法(OV)方法成功地利用了对象检测中图像文本对的此类信息,并实现了令人印象深刻的性能。受基于OV的方法的成功启发,我们提出了一个新型的开放式视频框架,称为多模式知识转移(MKT),用于多标签分类。具体而言,我们的方法利用基于视觉和语言预处理(VLP)模型的图像文本对的多模式知识。为了促进VLP模型的Imagetext匹配能力,使用知识蒸馏来保证图像和标签嵌入的一致性以及及时调整以进一步更新标签嵌入。为了进一步识别多个对象,开发了一个简单但有效的两流模块,以捕获本地和全局功能。广泛的实验结果表明,我们的方法在公共基准数据集上的表现明显优于最先进的方法。代码将在https://github.com/seanhe97/mkt上找到。

Large-scale cross-modal pre-training paradigms have recently shown ubiquitous success on a wide range of downstream tasks, e.g., zero-shot classification, retrieval and image captioning. However, their successes highly rely on the scale and quality of web-crawled data that naturally contain incomplete and noisy information (e.g., wrong or irrelevant content). Existing works either design manual rules to clean data or generate pseudo-targets as auxiliary signals for reducing noise impact, which do not explicitly tackle both the incorrect and incomplete challenges simultaneously. In this paper, to automatically mitigate the impact of noise by solely mining over existing data, we propose a principled Noise-robust Language-Image Pre-training framework (NLIP) to stabilize pre-training via two schemes: noise-harmonization and noise-completion. First, in noise-harmonization scheme, NLIP estimates the noise probability of each pair according to the memorization effect of cross-modal transformers, then adopts noise-adaptive regularization to harmonize the cross-modal alignments with varying degrees. Second, in noise-completion scheme, to enrich the missing object information of text, NLIP injects a concept-conditioned cross-modal decoder to obtain semantic-consistent synthetic captions to complete noisy ones, which uses the retrieved visual concepts (i.e., objects' names) for the corresponding image to guide captioning generation. By collaboratively optimizing noise-harmonization and noise-completion schemes, our NLIP can alleviate the common noise effects during image-text pre-training in a more efficient way. Extensive experiments show the significant performance improvements of our NLIP using only 26M data over existing pre-trained models (e.g., CLIP, FILIP and BLIP) on 12 zero-shot classification datasets, MSCOCO image captioning and zero-shot image-text retrieval tasks.

Pre-trained representations are becoming crucial for many NLP and perception tasks. While representation learning in NLP has transitioned to training on raw text without human annotations, visual and vision-language representations still rely heavily on curated training datasets that are expensive or require expert knowledge. For vision applications, representations are mostly learned using datasets with explicit class labels such as Ima-geNet or OpenImages. For vision-language, popular datasets like Conceptual Captions, MSCOCO, or CLIP all involve a non-trivial data collection (and cleaning) process. This costly curation process limits the size of datasets and hence hinders the scaling of trained models. In this paper, we leverage a noisy dataset of over one billion image alt-text pairs, obtained without expensive filtering or post-processing steps in the Conceptual Captions dataset. A simple dual-encoder architecture learns to align visual and language representations of the image and text pairs using a contrastive loss. We show that the scale of our corpus can make up for its noise and leads to state-of-the-art representations even with such a simple learning scheme. Our visual representation achieves strong performance when transferred to classification tasks such as ImageNet and VTAB. The aligned visual and language representations enables zero-shot image classification and also set new state-of-the-art results on Flickr30K and MSCOCO image-text retrieval benchmarks, even when compared with more sophisticated crossattention models. The representations also enable cross-modality search with complex text and text + image queries.

Astounding results from Transformer models on natural language tasks have intrigued the vision community to study their application to computer vision problems. Among their salient benefits, Transformers enable modeling long dependencies between input sequence elements and support parallel processing of sequence as compared to recurrent networks e.g., Long short-term memory (LSTM). Different from convolutional networks, Transformers require minimal inductive biases for their design and are naturally suited as set-functions. Furthermore, the straightforward design of Transformers allows processing multiple modalities (e.g., images, videos, text and speech) using similar processing blocks and demonstrates excellent scalability to very large capacity networks and huge datasets. These strengths have led to exciting progress on a number of vision tasks using Transformer networks. This survey aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the Transformer models in the computer vision discipline. We start with an introduction to fundamental concepts behind the success of Transformers i.e., self-attention, large-scale pre-training, and bidirectional feature encoding. We then cover extensive applications of transformers in vision including popular recognition tasks (e.g., image classification, object detection, action recognition, and segmentation), generative modeling, multi-modal tasks (e.g., visual-question answering, visual reasoning, and visual grounding), video processing (e.g., activity recognition, video forecasting), low-level vision (e.g., image super-resolution, image enhancement, and colorization) and 3D analysis (e.g., point cloud classification and segmentation). We compare the respective advantages and limitations of popular techniques both in terms of architectural design and their experimental value. Finally, we provide an analysis on open research directions and possible future works. We hope this effort will ignite further interest in the community to solve current challenges towards the application of transformer models in computer vision.

随着大型预训练的Vison语言模型(如剪辑)的出现,可以通过及时调整来调整可转让表示形式。及时调整试图从存储在预训练的视觉模型的图像和文本编码器中的常识中探索有益信息,以探索下游任务。最近提出的名为“上下文优化”(COP)的方法将一组可学习的向量从语言侧引入文本提示符,而单独调整文本提示符则不会影响图像编码器的计算视觉特征,从而导致了次级优势。在本文中,我们通过学习文本提示并同时为文本和图像编码器提供双重模式提示调整范式。此外,为了使视觉提示更多地集中在目标视觉概念上,我们提出了类感知的视觉及时调整(CAVPT),该调整是通过在模板提示和视觉类别令牌嵌入的语言描述之间进行交叉注意来动态生成的。我们的方法提供了一种新的范式来调整大型预训练的视觉模型,并在8个数据集上进行了广泛的实验结果,证明了该方法的有效性。我们的代码在补充材料中可用。

图像和语言建模对于视觉前训练(VLP)至关重要,该培训旨在从大规模配对的图像文本数据中学习多模式表示。但是,我们观察到,大多数现有的VLP方法着重于建模图像和文本特征之间的相互作用,同时忽略图像和文本之间的信息差异,从而遭受焦点偏见。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了一个视觉语言掩盖自动编码器框架(VLMAE)。VLMAE采用视觉生成学习,促进该模型获得细粒度和公正的特征。与以前的作品不同,Vlmae注意图像中几乎所有关键的补丁,提供了更全面的理解。广泛的实验表明,VLMAE在各种视觉语言下游任务中取得更好的性能,包括视觉问答,即使有20%的预训练速度,图像文本检索和视觉接地也是如此。

Pre-trained vision-language models like CLIP have recently shown superior performances on various downstream tasks, including image classification and segmentation. However, in fine-grained image re-identification (ReID), the labels are indexes, lacking concrete text descriptions. Therefore, it remains to be determined how such models could be applied to these tasks. This paper first finds out that simply fine-tuning the visual model initialized by the image encoder in CLIP, has already obtained competitive performances in various ReID tasks. Then we propose a two-stage strategy to facilitate a better visual representation. The key idea is to fully exploit the cross-modal description ability in CLIP through a set of learnable text tokens for each ID and give them to the text encoder to form ambiguous descriptions. In the first training stage, image and text encoders from CLIP keep fixed, and only the text tokens are optimized from scratch by the contrastive loss computed within a batch. In the second stage, the ID-specific text tokens and their encoder become static, providing constraints for fine-tuning the image encoder. With the help of the designed loss in the downstream task, the image encoder is able to represent data as vectors in the feature embedding accurately. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is validated on several datasets for the person or vehicle ReID tasks. Code is available at https://github.com/Syliz517/CLIP-ReID.

现有的时间动作检测(TAD)方法依赖于大型培训数据,包括细分级注释,仅限于在推理期间单独识别先前看到的课程。为每类兴趣收集和注释一个大型培训集是昂贵的,因此无法计算。零射TAD(ZS-TAD)通过启用预训练的模型来识别任何看不见的动作类别来解决这一障碍。同时,ZS-TAD的调查大大降低,ZS-Tad也更具挑战性。受零摄像图像分类的成功的启发,我们旨在解决更复杂的TAD任务。一种直观的方法是将现成的建议探测器与剪辑样式分类集成。但是,由于顺序定位(例如,提案生成)和分类设计,它很容易进行定位误差传播。为了克服这个问题,在本文中,我们通过视觉提示(陈旧)提出了一种新型的零射击时间动作检测模型。这种新颖的设计通过破坏介于两者之间的错误传播途径来有效地消除了定位和分类之间的依赖性。我们进一步介绍了分类和定位之间的相互作用机制,以改善优化。对标准ZS-TAD视频基准测试的广泛实验表明,我们的陈旧的表现明显优于最先进的替代方案。此外,我们的模型还与最近的强大竞争对手相比,在受到监督的TAD上还能产生卓越的成果。 Stale的Pytorch实现可从https://github.com/sauradip/stale获得。

In the field of cross-modal retrieval, single encoder models tend to perform better than dual encoder models, but they suffer from high latency and low throughput. In this paper, we present a dual encoder model called BagFormer that utilizes a cross modal interaction mechanism to improve recall performance without sacrificing latency and throughput. BagFormer achieves this through the use of bag-wise interactions, which allow for the transformation of text to a more appropriate granularity and the incorporation of entity knowledge into the model. Our experiments demonstrate that BagFormer is able to achieve results comparable to state-of-the-art single encoder models in cross-modal retrieval tasks, while also offering efficient training and inference with 20.72 times lower latency and 25.74 times higher throughput.

Learning fine-grained interplay between vision and language allows to a more accurate understanding for VisionLanguage tasks. However, it remains challenging to extract key image regions according to the texts for semantic alignments. Most existing works are either limited by textagnostic and redundant regions obtained with the frozen detectors, or failing to scale further due to its heavy reliance on scarce grounding (gold) data to pre-train detectors. To solve these problems, we propose Self-Locator Aided Network (SLAN) for cross-modal understanding tasks without any extra gold data. SLAN consists of a region filter and a region adaptor to localize regions of interest conditioned on different texts. By aggregating cross-modal information, the region filter selects key regions and the region adaptor updates their coordinates with text guidance. With detailed region-word alignments, SLAN can be easily generalized to many downstream tasks. It achieves fairly competitive results on five cross-modal understanding tasks (e.g., 85.7% and 69.2% on COCO image-to-text and text-to-image retrieval, surpassing previous SOTA methods). SLAN also demonstrates strong zero-shot and fine-tuned transferability to two localization tasks.

Vision-and-Language Pre-training (VLP) has improved performance on various joint vision-andlanguage downstream tasks. Current approaches to VLP heavily rely on image feature extraction processes, most of which involve region supervision (e.g., object detection) and the convolutional architecture (e.g., ResNet). Although disregarded in the literature, we find it problematic in terms of both (1) efficiency/speed, that simply extracting input features requires much more computation than the multimodal interaction steps; and (2) expressive power, as it is upper bounded to the expressive power of the visual embedder and its predefined visual vocabulary. In this paper, we present a minimal VLP model, Vision-and-Language Transformer (ViLT), monolithic in the sense that the processing of visual inputs is drastically simplified to just the same convolution-free manner that we process textual inputs. We show that ViLT is up to tens of times faster than previous VLP models, yet with competitive or better downstream task performance.
