近年来,大规模视觉与语言模型的进展在零样本学习任务中取得了显著进步。CoOp和CoCoOp等方法表明,用可学习向量(即提示学习)替代手工设计的提示可以提升性能。然而,这些模型往往难以泛化到完全未见过的类别。传统零样本学习技术受益于多种数据增强策略,但提示学习主要聚焦于基于文本的修改,基于图像的增强潜力在很大程度上尚未被探索。在本工作中,我们探索了图像级增强(尤其是引入属性特定变化的增强)如何支持和增强提示学习。我们的分析考察了这些增强与软提示框架之间的交互,揭示了它们在改善泛化方面的潜力。我们还识别出现有方法(如CoCoOp)的一个局限性:它们没有为学习聚焦于语义上有意义的视觉特征的提示提供明确指导。为解决这一问题,我们提出了Adding Attributes to Prompt Learning(AAPL),这是一种新方法,通过引入对抗性token嵌入,将增强引入的表面视觉变化与类别相关的语义表示解耦。这种解耦使学习到的提示能够集中于与目标类别对齐的视觉判别性特征。我们在十一个基准数据集上进行了全面实验,AAPL在少样本、零样本、跨数据集和域泛化设置中一致优于现有方法。我们的源代码公开于:https://github.com/Gahyeonkim09/AAPL
英文摘要:
Recent advances in large-scale vision and language models have led to significant progress in zero-shot learning tasks. Methods such as CoOp and CoCoOp have shown that replacing handcrafted prompts with learnable vectors, known as prompt learning, can result in improved performance. However, these models often struggle to generalize to entirely unseen categories. While traditional zero-shot learning techniques benefit from various data augmentation strategies, prompt learning has primarily focused on text-based modifications, leaving the potential of image-based augmentation largely unexplored. In this work, we explore how image-level augmentations, particularly those that introduce attribute-specific variations, can support and enhance prompt learning. Our analysis examines the interaction between these augmentations and soft prompt frameworks, revealing their potential to improve generalization. We also identify a limitation in existing methods, such as CoCoOp, which do not provide explicit guidance for learning prompts that focus on semantically meaningful visual features. To address this, we propose Adding Attributes to Prompt Learning, AAPL, a novel method that introduces adversarial token embeddings to decouple superficial visual variations introduced by augmentation from class-relevant semantic representations. This decoupling enables the learned prompts to concentrate on visually discriminative features that align with the target categories. We conduct comprehensive experiments on eleven benchmark datasets, and AAPL consistently outperforms existing methods across few-shot, zero-shot, cross-dataset, and domain generalization settings.
