Pre-training image-language transformers for open-vocabulary tasks

9 Sep 2022  ·  AJ Piergiovanni, Weicheng Kuo, Anelia Angelova ·

We present a pre-training approach for vision and language transformer models, which is based on a mixture of diverse tasks. We explore both the use of image-text captioning data in pre-training, which does not need additional supervision, as well as object-aware strategies to pre-train the model. We evaluate the method on a number of textgenerative vision+language tasks, such as Visual Question Answering, visual entailment and captioning, and demonstrate large gains over standard pre-training methods.
