• Abstract: Zero-shot action recognition is the task of recognizing action classes without visual examples, only with a semantic embedding which relates unseen to seen classes. The problem can be seen as learning a function which generalizes well to instances of unseen classes without losing discrimination between classes. Neural networks can model the complex boundaries between visual classes, which explains their success as supervised models. However, in zero-shot learning, these highly specialized class boundaries may not transfer well from seen to unseen classes. In this paper, we propose a clustering-based model, which considers all training samples at once, instead of optimizing for each instance individually. We optimize the clustering using Reinforcement Learning which we show is critical for our approach to work. We call the proposed method CLASTER and observe that it consistently improves over the state-of-the-art in all standard datasets, UCF101, HMDB51, and Olympic Sports; both in the standard zero-shot evaluation and the generalized zero-shot learning.

Experiments demonstrate that em GIL improves generalization in unseen classes, achieving a new state-of-the-art in zero-shot recognition.

  Large-scale pre-trained Vision Language Models (VLMs) have proven effective for zero-shot classification. In this paper, we aim at a more challenging setting, Realistic Zero-Shot Classification, which assumes no annotation but instead a broad vocabulary. We propose the Self Structural Semantic Alignment (S3A) framework, which extracts structural semantic information from unlabeled data while simultaneously self-learning.

  We propose to discover semantic embeddings containing discriminative visual properties for zero-shot learning. Our model visually divides a set of images from seen classes into clusters of local image regions according to their visual similarity. We demonstrate that our visually-grounded semantic embeddings further improve performance over word embeddings across various ZSL models by a large margin.

  Consistent Assignment for Representation Learning (CARL) is an unsupervised learning method to learn visual representations. By viewing contrastive learning from a clustering perspective, CARL learns unsupervised representations by learning a set of general prototypes. Unlike contemporary work on contrastive learning with deep clustering, CARL proposes to learn the set of general prototypes in an online fashion.

These fictitious classes diminish the model's tendency to fixate during training on attribute correlations that appear in the training set but will not appear in newly exposed classes.
