• Abstract summary: We propose a generative prompt model (GenPromp) to localize less discriminative object parts. During training, GenPromp converts image category labels to learnable prompt embeddings which are fed to a generative model. Experiments on CUB-200-2011 and ILSVRC show that GenPromp respectively outperforms the best discriminative models.

• Abstract: Weakly supervised object localization (WSOL) remains challenging when learning object localization models from image category labels. Conventional methods that discriminatively train activation models ignore representative yet less discriminative object parts. In this study, we propose a generative prompt model (GenPromp), defining the first generative pipeline to localize less discriminative object parts by formulating WSOL as a conditional image denoising procedure. During training, GenPromp converts image category labels to learnable prompt embeddings which are fed to a generative model to conditionally recover the input image with noise and learn representative embeddings. During inference, enPromp combines the representative embeddings with discriminative embeddings (queried from an off-the-shelf vision-language model) for both representative and discriminative capacity. The combined embeddings are finally used to generate multi-scale high-quality attention maps, which facilitate localizing full object extent. Experiments on CUB-200-2011 and ILSVRC show that GenPromp respectively outperforms the best discriminative models by 5.2% and 5.6% (Top-1 Loc), setting a solid baseline for WSOL with the generative model.

  We propose a novel generative multi-modal model (GMM) framework for class-incremental learning. Our approach directly generates labels for images using an adapted generative model. Under the Few-shot CIL setting, we have improved by at least 14% accuracy over all the current state-of-the-art methods with significantly less forgetting.

  We introduce a novel Referring Diffusional segmentor (Ref-Diff) for referring image segmentation. We demonstrate that without a proposal generator, a generative model alone can achieve comparable performance to existing SOTA weakly-supervised models. This indicates that generative models are also beneficial for this task and can complement discriminative models for better referring segmentation.

  Diffusion models have risen to prominence as a state-of-the-art method for image generation, denoising, inpainting, super-resolution, manipulation, etc. We present our findings that these embeddings are useful beyond the noise prediction task, as they contain discriminative information and can also be leveraged for classification. We find that with careful feature selection and pooling, diffusion models outperform comparable generative-discriminative methods for classification tasks.
