Title
CoHOZ: Contrastive Multimodal Prompt Tuning for Hierarchical Open-set Zero-shot Recognition
Abstract
ABSTRACTPractical image recognition often encounters samples whose labels either are totally unknown or belong to new classes outside the training set. The first problem refers to the open-set recognition (OSR), in which unknown classes are recognized as one with no more semantic information. While the latter is called zero-shot learning (ZSL), in which new classes are usually predefined. The existing literature mostly addresses these two problems separately. In this paper, we take the ambition for solving the combination of these two problems to fulfill semantically recognizing the unknown classes detected in OSR by zero-shot prediction. We propose the Contrastive multimodal prompt tuning for Hierarchical Open-set Zero-shot recognition (CoHOZ). Specifically, we firstly build a global and compatible hierarchical label tree with all downstream datasets aligned, which lays foundations for other modules. To detect unknown classes, we propose the contrastive continuous prompt tuning, which introduces additional negative classes from the fine level of the built hierarchy for prompt learning. To generate candidate classes for zero-shot prediction on the unknown data using prompt, we combine the built hierarchy to collect candidate classes from coarse to fine. In our experiments, when following the standard OSR protocol regarding all the unknown classes as a single class, CoHOZ achieves a new state-of-the-art performance both in unknown detection and open-set recognition. Few-shot tuning by the CoHOZ also shows competitive performance on them. In addition, the detailed semantic information of unknown classes are well explored, which has also been verified in experiments.
