Embodiment Construction

[0068] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0069] like figure 1 Shown, the implementation process of the present invention is as follows:

[0070] Step 1: Organize the text and images in the database into a prescribed data pattern.

[0071] The data mode is a sample composed of text, image and category label. In the process of reading, the sample class is first constructed, and the member variables are text data, image data and category label data. Next, the original data is read using Tools read in a specific format.

[0072] For an image file, the amount of corresponding text data can be one sentence, multiple sentences or a description, depending on the specific data set.

[0073] Taking the MSCOCO dataset as an example, each sample consists of an image, a text, and a label, expressed as and stored as a unit in the dataset.

[0074] Step 2: Using deep ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an image-text cross-modal feature unentanglement method based on depth mutual information constraint. The method comprises the following steps: reading text and image files ina specified data mode; secondly, respectively extracting original features of the text and the image data by utilizing ResNet and BiGRU; then, under the effect of depth mutual information constraint,mapping the original features to a mixed feature space; finally, using the generative adversarial network to reconstruct the data to different degrees. By controlling the reconstruction process, the unentanglement of the cross-modal features is realized, so that the modal common information and the modal specific information are mapped to different feature spaces respectively. According to the method, the unentanglement features can be learned on large-scale image-text data, and only the features are unentangled, so that the retrieval accuracy is improved, and the depth features have better interpretability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of graphic-text cross-modal calculation, and in particular relates to a graphic-text cross-modal feature disentanglement method constrained by depth mutual information. Background technique [0002] Due to the rapid rise and development of social networks and short video platforms in recent years, multimedia data on the Internet has exploded. People urgently hope to find appropriate and effective methods to deal with these multimodal data. Cross-modal retrieval is the most basic and representative type of cross-modal data computing methods. [0003] The task of cross-modal information retrieval is that when people give data from one modality (such as images), the retrieval algorithm can return data from another modality (such as text modality) and query data through the processing and calculation of hardware devices. Related return results. However, there is large heterogeneity in data from different modalities. T...
