- Abstract summary: We introduce a novel incremental active learning framework that asks for attributes and relations in visual scenes.
While conventional active learning methods ask for labels of specific examples, we flip this framing to allow agents to ask for examples from specific categories.
Using this framing, we introduce an active sampling method that asks for examples from the tail of the data distribution and show that it outperforms classical active learning methods on Visual Genome.

- Abstract: There has been significant progress in creating machine learning models that
identify objects in scenes along with their associated attributes and
relationships; however, there is a large gap between the best models and human
capabilities. One of the major reasons for this gap is the difficulty in
collecting sufficient amounts of annotated relations and attributes for
training these systems. While some attributes and relations are abundant, the
distribution in the natural world and existing datasets is long tailed. In this
paper, we address this problem by introducing a novel incremental active
learning framework that asks for attributes and relations in visual scenes.
While conventional active learning methods ask for labels of specific examples,
we flip this framing to allow agents to ask for examples from specific
categories. Using this framing, we introduce an active sampling method that
asks for examples from the tail of the data distribution and show that it
outperforms classical active learning methods on Visual Genome.

We offer a novel perspective on long-tail learning, inspired by an observation: datasets with finer granularity tend to be less affected by data imbalance.
We introduce open-set auxiliary classes that are visually similar to existing ones, aiming to enhance representation learning for both head and tail classes.
To prevent the overwhelming presence of auxiliary classes from disrupting training, we introduce a neighbor-silencing loss.

We propose an auxiliary training objective that improves the generalization capabilities of neural networks.
We use pairs of minimally-different examples with different labels, a.k.a counterfactual or contrasting examples, which provide a signal indicative of the underlying causal structure of the task.
Models trained with this technique demonstrate improved performance on out-of-distribution test sets.
