Polysemous Visual-Semantic Embedding for Cross-Modal Retrieval

1 code implementation CVPR 2019 Yale Song, Mohammad Soleymani

In this work, we introduce Polysemous Instance Embedding Networks (PIE-Nets) that compute multiple and diverse representations of an instance by combining global context with locally-guided features via multi-head self-attention and residual learning.

Cross-Modal Retrieval with Implicit Concept Association

no code implementations12 Apr 2018 Yale Song, Mohammad Soleymani

Traditional cross-modal retrieval assumes explicit association of concepts across modalities, where there is no ambiguity in how the concepts are linked to each other, e. g., when we do the image search with a query "dogs", we expect to see dog images.
