• Abstract summary: We develop a generative network-based ZSL approach equipped with the proposed Cross Knowledge Learning (CKL) scheme and Taxonomy Regularization (TR) CKL enables more relevant semantic features to be trained for semantic-to-visual feature embedding in ZSL. TR significantly improves the intersections with unseen images with more generalized visual features generated from generative network.

• Abstract: Although zero-shot learning (ZSL) has an inferential capability of recognizing new classes that have never been seen before, it always faces two fundamental challenges of the cross modality and crossdomain challenges. In order to alleviate these problems, we develop a generative network-based ZSL approach equipped with the proposed Cross Knowledge Learning (CKL) scheme and Taxonomy Regularization (TR). In our approach, the semantic features are taken as inputs, and the output is the synthesized visual features generated from the corresponding semantic features. CKL enables more relevant semantic features to be trained for semantic-to-visual feature embedding in ZSL, while Taxonomy Regularization (TR) significantly improves the intersections with unseen images with more generalized visual features generated from generative network. Extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets (i.e., AwA1, AwA2, CUB, NAB and aPY) show that our approach is superior to these state-of-the-art methods in terms of ZSL image classification and retrieval.

  Zero-shot learning (ZSL) enables the recognition of novel classes by leveraging semantic knowledge transfer from known to unknown categories. Real-world challenges such as distribution imbalances and attribute co-occurrence hinder the discernment of local variances in images. We propose a bidirectional cross-modal ZSL approach CREST to overcome these challenges.

  Generalized Zero-Shot Learning aims to recognize images from both the seen and unseen classes by transferring semantic knowledge from seen to unseen classes. It is a promising solution to take the advantage of generative models to hallucinate realistic unseen samples based on the knowledge learned from the seen classes. We propose a novel flow-based generative framework that consists of multiple conditional affine coupling layers for learning unseen data generation.

  We introduce Cluster Learnability (CL) to assess learnability. CL is measured in terms of the performance of a KNN trained to predict labels obtained by clustering the representations with K-means. We find that CL better correlates with in-distribution model performance than other competing recent evaluation schemes.

In addition, we propose a novel Information Enhancement Module (IEM) to reduce the possibility of latent variables collapse meanwhile encouraging the discriminative ability of latent variables.

  Generalized zero-shot learning (GZSL) has achieved significant progress, with many efforts dedicated to overcoming the problems of visual-semantic domain gap and seen-unseen bias. Most existing methods directly use feature extraction models trained on ImageNet alone, ignoring the cross-dataset bias between ImageNet and GZSL benchmarks. We propose a simple yet effective GZSL method, termed feature refinement for generalized zero-shot learning (FREE) to tackle the above problem.

  Zero-Shot Learning (ZSL) is an emerging research that aims to solve the classification problems with very few training data.
