摘要:

像CLIP这样的视觉语言模型(VLMs)通过对比预训练对齐图像和文本表示,在零样本学习中表现出色。现有针对VLM细粒度分类的无监督适配(UA)方法,要么依赖无法捕捉演变的细微类别差异的固定对齐分数,要么使用限制可扩展性的计算成本高昂的伪标签策略。相比之下,我们展示了在适配过程中建模细粒度跨模态交互,能够产生更准确、更具类别区分度的伪标签,并显著优于最先进(SOTA)方法的性能。我们提出了细粒度对齐与交互优化(FAIR),这是一种创新方法,通过一组类别描述锚点(CDA)将局部图像特征与描述性语言嵌入动态对齐。这使得定义学习对齐分数(LAS)成为可能,它将CDA作为自适应分类器,促进跨模态交互以改善无监督适配中的自训练。此外,我们提出了一种自训练加权机制,旨在类别间存在歧义时优化伪标签。我们的方法FAIR在细粒度无监督适配中带来了显著的性能提升,与SOTA方法相比,在13个细粒度数据集上实现了2.78%的显著总体增益。

英文摘要:

Vision-language models (VLMs) like CLIP excel in zero-shot learning by aligning image and text representations through contrastive pretraining. Existing approaches to unsupervised adaptation (UA) for fine-grained classification with VLMs either rely on fixed alignment scores that cannot capture evolving, subtle class distinctions or use computationally expensive pseudo-labeling strategies that limit scalability. In contrast, we show that modeling fine-grained cross-modal interactions during adaptation produces more accurate, class-discriminative pseudo-labels and substantially improves performance over state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods. We introduce Fine-grained Alignment and Interaction Refinement (FAIR), an innovative approach that dynamically aligns localized image features with descriptive language embeddings through a set of Class Description Anchors (CDA). This enables the definition of a Learned Alignment Score (LAS), which incorporates CDA as an adaptive classifier, facilitating cross-modal interactions to improve self-training in unsupervised adaptation. Furthermore, we propose a self-training weighting mechanism designed to refine pseudo-labels in the presence of inter-class ambiguities. Our approach, FAIR, delivers a substantial performance boost in fine-grained unsupervised adaptation, achieving a notable overall gain of 2.78% across 13 fine-grained datasets compared to SOTA methods.
