SUMMARY:BMVC 2024_The 35th British Machine Vision Conference
DESCRIPTION:Davide Caffagni\, ITSERR researcher (University of Modena and Reggio Emilia) participated in the 35th British Machine Vision Conference (BMVC)\, presenting the paper “Revisiting Image Captioning Training Paradigm via Direct CLIP-based Optimization“\, co-authored with Nicholas Moratelli\, Marcella Cornia\, Lorenzo Baraldi\, and Rita Cucchiara (University of Modena and Reggio Emilia). \nThe paper introduces Direct CLIP-Based Optimization (DiCO)\, a novel training paradigm for image captioning that improves stability and enhances caption quality by optimizing modern metrics like CLIP-Score while maintaining fluency. The proposed approach outperforms existing methods in aligning with human preferences and generates more informative captions.
