• Abstract: Large vision-language models (VLMs) are shown to learn rich joint image-text representations enabling high performances in relevant downstream tasks. However, they fail to showcase their quantitative understanding of objects, and they lack good counting-aware representation. This paper conducts a reproducibility study of 'Teaching CLIP to Count to Ten' (Paiss et al., 2023), which presents a method to finetune a CLIP model (Radford et al., 2021) to improve zero-shot counting accuracy in an image while maintaining the performance for zero-shot classification by introducing a counting-contrastive loss term. We improve the model's performance on a smaller subset of their training data with lower computational resources. We verify these claims by reproducing their study with our own code. The implementation can be found at https://github.com/SforAiDl/CountCLIP.

  Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) models maximize the mutual information between text and visual modalities to learn representations. We show that generating hard'' negative captions via in-context learning and corresponding negative images with text-to-image generators offers a solution. We demonstrate that our method, named TripletCLIP, enhances the compositional capabilities of CLIP, resulting in an absolute improvement of over 9% on the SugarCrepe benchmark.

  This paper addresses the transductive zero-shot and few-shot CLIP classification challenge. Inference is performed jointly across a mini-batch of unlabeled query samples, rather than treating each instance independently. Our approach yields near 20% improvement in ImageNet accuracy over CLIP's zero-shot performance.

  We propose a simple yet effective framework, named Learning Prompt with Distribution-based Feature Replay (LP-DiF) To prevent the learnable prompt from forgetting old knowledge in the new session, we propose a pseudo-feature replay approach. When progressing to a new session, pseudo-features are sampled from old-class distributions combined with training images of the current session to optimize the prompt.

  We study whether language supervision can result in vision models with more transferable representations than traditional image-only methods. We find that image-only methods do not match CLIP's transfer performance, even when they are trained with more image data. Motivated by our findings, we devise simple prescriptions to enable CLIP to better leverage the language information present in existing pre-training datasets.
