Teaching Structured Vision & Language Concepts to Vision & Language Models

This repository contains the code for the paper "Teaching Structured Vision & Language Concepts to Vision & Language Models" (link), by Sivan Doveh et al, published at CVPR 2023.

A model checkpoint for models trained with [LLM,RB] negatives, and a zip file of the generated positives can be downloaded from this Google Drive link:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WosT_kdam1ymWjVSK2ezyydLoqmm0LdX?usp=sharing

"train_with_cap.csv" and "val_with_cap.csv" are also in the google drive ^^

Installation:

Requirements

Linux machine
At least one NVIDIA GPU
At least CUDA 10.2
Anaconda (Installation instructions: https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/)

Install Dependencies

To install the required dependencies, first, clone the repository and navigate to the cloned directory:

git clone TSVLC  
cd TSVLC

Next, create and activate the conda environment:

conda deactivate # deactivate any active environments
conda create -n vl python=3.8.13 # install the conda environment with conda dependencies
conda activate vl # activate the environment
conda install -c conda-forge libjpeg-turbo
conda install pytorch==1.12.1 torchvision==0.13.1 cudatoolkit=11.3.1 -c pytorch

Data Preparations

Training data

Download Conceptual Captions 3M training and validation splits from https://ai.google.com/research/ConceptualCaptions/download
After data preparation, place the data in TSVLC/CC3M_data/training and TSVLC/CC3M_data/validation

Train with Positives

Download the positives from https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WosT_kdam1ymWjVSK2ezyydLoqmm0LdX?usp=sharing and place them in TSVLC/CC3M_positives/

Evaluation data

Prepare vl checklist dataset as described in https://github.com/om-ai-lab/VL-CheckList/blob/main/DATASETS.md
Then move the vl dataset to TSVLC/vl_datasets/
If you followed the instructions correctly, you should have the following folders inside vl_datasets: 'hake', 'swig', 'vg'.

Training

Run the training script

First, navigate to the src directory:

cd src

The model will be saved in TSVLC/Outputs/exp_name/checkpoints

To train a network with:

RB negative generation:

python3 training/main.py --name exp_name --vl_negs --lora 4 --neg_type rule_based --pretrained openai

RB + llm based negatives generation:

python3 training/main.py --name exp_name --vl_negs --lora 4 --neg_type both --llm_neg_types NOUN ADP ADJ VERB --pretrained openai

Positives:

python3 training/main.py --name exp_name --vl_pos --lora 4 --pretrained openai

Evaluation

Run the evaluation script

All vl_checklist jsons will be saved in TSVLC/eval_jsons/clip/exp_name/ and the result will be printed. To prepare the vl checklist evaluate results for the experiment exp_name run the following command:

python3 training/main.py  --lora 4 --pretrained openai --eval_vl_cklist --eval_only --resume /path/to/checkpoint
