Task-Adaptive Attention for Image Captioning

Abstract

Attention mechanisms are now widely used in image captioning models. However, most attention models only focus on visual features. When generating syntax related words, little visual information is needed. In this case, these attention models could mislead the word generation. In this paper, we propose Task-Adaptive Attention module for image captioning, which can alleviate this misleading problem and learn implicit non-visual clues which can be helpful for the generation of non-visual words. We further introduce a diversity regularization to enhance the expression ability of the Task-Adaptive Attention module. Extensive experiments on the MSCOCO captioning dataset demonstrate that by plugging our Task-Adaptive Attention module into a vanilla Transformer-based image captioning model, performance improvement can be achieved.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
