In this paper, we propose a textual visual context dataset for captioning, where the publicly available dataset COCO caption (Lin et al., 2014) has been extended with information about the scene (such as objects in the image). Since this information has textual form, it can be used to leverage any NLP task, such as text similarity or semantic relation methods, into captioning systems, either as an end-to-end training strategy or a post-processing based approach.

We use ResNet152, CLIP, and Faster R-CNN to extract object information for each image. We use three filter approaches to ensure the quality of the dataset (1) Threshold: to filter out predictions where the object classifier is not confident enough, and (2) semantic alignment with semantic similarity to remove duplicated objects. (3) semantic relatedness score as soft-label: to guarantee the visual context and caption have a strong relation. In particular, we use Sentence-RoBERTa-sts via cosine similarity to give a soft score, and then we use a threshold to annotate the final label (if th ≥ 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 then 1,0). Finally, to take advantage of the visual overlap between caption and visual context, and to extract global information, we use BERT followed by a shallow 1D-CNN (Kim, 2014) to estimate the visual relatedness score. ### Download 0.
