Active Learning for Finely-Categorized Image-Text Retrieval by Selecting Hard Negative Unpaired Samples

Securing a sufficient amount of paired data is important to train an image-text retrieval (ITR) model, but collecting paired data is very expensive. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose an active learning algorithm for ITR that can collect paired data cost-efficiently. Previous studies assume that image-text pairs are given and their category labels are asked to the annotator. However, in the recent ITR studies, the importance of category label is decreased since a retrieval model can be trained with only image-text pairs. For this reason, we set up an active learning scenario where unpaired images (or texts) are given and the annotator provides corresponding texts (or images) to make paired data. The key idea of the proposed AL algorithm is to select unpaired images (or texts) that can be hard negative samples for existing texts (or images). To this end, we introduce a novel scoring function to choose hard negative samples. We validate the effectiveness of the proposed method on Flickr30K and MS-COCO datasets.

Optimizing Three Critical Factors for Practical and Effective OOD Detection Fine-Tuning

In out-of-distribution (OOD) detection, fine-tuning with auxiliary outlier data often improves detection performance at the cost of classification accuracy. This trade-off stems from the loss of the original in-distribution (ID) distribution during fine-tuning. To establish a more practical and effective paradigm, we optimize three critical factors: model reminder, data sampling, and representation learning. We propose: (1) Self-Knowledge Distillation (SKD) to mitigate accuracy reduction; (2) Semi-hard Outlier Sampling (SOS) to improve detection efficiency with minimal data; and (3) Outlier-aware Supervised Contrastive Learning (OSCL) to promote ID-OOD separability. Optimizing these factors produces cumulative gains, boosting both OOD detection performance and classification accuracy. Our framework outperforms existing methods across diverse benchmarks, particularly in long-tailed scenarios, providing a robust baseline for real-world OOD detection.
