• Abstract summary: This paper builds upon recent advancements in visual concept learning. It involves acquiring a visual concept from a source image and subsequently applying it to an object in a target image. To localize the concept learning, we employ soft masks that contain both the concept within the mask and the surrounding image area.

• Abstract: This paper addresses the challenge of learning a local visual pattern of an object from one image, and generating images depicting objects with that pattern. Learning a localized concept and placing it on an object in a target image is a nontrivial task, as the objects may have different orientations and shapes. Our approach builds upon recent advancements in visual concept learning. It involves acquiring a visual concept (e.g., an ornament) from a source image and subsequently applying it to an object (e.g., a chair) in a target image. Our key idea is to perform in-context concept learning, acquiring the local visual concept within the broader context of the objects they belong to. To localize the concept learning, we employ soft masks that contain both the concept within the mask and the surrounding image area. We demonstrate our approach through object generation within an image, showcasing plausible embedding of in-context learned concepts. We also introduce methods for directing acquired concepts to specific locations within target images, employing cross-attention mechanisms, and establishing correspondences between source and target objects. The effectiveness of our method is demonstrated through quantitative and qualitative experiments, along with comparisons against baseline techniques.

  Concept-based explanations have become a popular choice for explaining deep neural networks post-hoc. We devise a reinforcement learning-based preference optimization algorithm that fine-tunes the vision-language generative model. In addition to showing the efficacy and reliability of our method, we show how our method can be used as a diagnostic tool for analyzing neural networks.

  We introduce a novel approach to teach scene contextual knowledge to machines using an attention mechanism. A distinctive aspect of the proposed approach is its reliance solely on labels from image datasets to teach scene context. We show how scene-wide relationships among different objects can be learned using a self-attention mechanism.

  We introduce ConceptBed, a large-scale dataset that consists of 284 unique visual concepts and 33K composite text prompts. We evaluate visual concepts that are either objects, attributes, or styles, and also evaluate four dimensions of compositionality: counting, attributes, relations, and actions. Our results point to a trade-off between learning the concepts and preserving the compositionality which existing approaches struggle to overcome.
