Image Captioning using Visual Attention
نویسنده
چکیده
This project aims at generating captions for images using neural language models. There has been a substantial increase in number of proposed models for image captioning task since neural language models and convolutional neural networks(CNN) became popular. Our project has its base on one of such works, which uses a variant of Recurrent neural network coupled with a CNN. We intend to enhance this model by making subtle changes to the architecture and using phrases as elementary units instead of words, which may lead to better semantic and syntactical captions.

Text-Guided Attention Model for Image Captioning
Visual attention plays an important role to understand images and demonstrates its effectiveness in generating natural language descriptions of images. On the other hand, recent studies show that language associated with an image can steer visual attention in the scene during our cognitive process. Inspired by this, we introduce a text-guided attention model for image captioning, which learns t...
متن کاملSocial Image Captioning: Exploring Visual Attention and User Attention
Image captioning with a natural language has been an emerging trend. However, the social image, associated with a set of user-contributed tags, has been rarely investigated for a similar task. The user-contributed tags, which could reflect the user attention, have been neglected in conventional image captioning. Most existing image captioning models cannot be applied directly to social image ca...
متن کاملSeeing with Humans: Gaze-Assisted Neural Image Captioning
Gaze reflects how humans process visual scenes and is therefore increasingly used in computer vision systems. Previous works demonstrated the potential of gaze for object-centric tasks, such as object localization and recognition, but it remains unclear if gaze can also be beneficial for scene-centric tasks, such as image captioning. We present a new perspective on gaze-assisted image captionin...
متن کاملImage Caption Generation with Text-Conditional Semantic Attention
Attention mechanisms have attracted considerable interest in image captioning due to its powerful performance. However, existing methods use only visual content as attention and whether textual context can improve attention in image captioning remains unsolved. To explore this problem, we propose a novel attention mechanism, called textconditional attention, which allows the caption generator t...
متن کاملBottom-Up and Top-Down Attention for Image Captioning and Visual Question Answering
Top-down visual attention mechanisms have been used extensively in image captioning and visual question answering (VQA) to enable deeper image understanding through fine-grained analysis and even multiple steps of reasoning. In this work, we propose a combined bottom-up and topdown attention mechanism that enables attention to be calculated at the level of objects and other salient image region...
متن کاملImage Captioning with Attention
In the past few years, neural networks have fueled dramatic advances in image classi cation. Emboldened, researchers are looking for more challenging applications for computer vision and arti cial intelligence systems. They seek not only to assign numerical labels to input data, but to describe the world in human terms. Image and video captioning is among the most popular applications in this t...
