CREPE: Learnable Prompting With CLIP Improves Visual Relationship Prediction

In this paper, we explore the potential of Vision-Language Models (VLMs), specifically CLIP, in predicting visual object relationships, which involves interpreting visual features from images into language-based relations. Current state-of-the-art methods use complex graphical models that utilize language cues and visual features to address this challenge. We hypothesize that the strong language priors in CLIP embeddings can simplify these graphical models paving for a simpler approach. We adopt the UVTransE relation prediction framework, which learns the relation as a translational embedding with subject, object, and union box embeddings from a scene. We systematically explore the design of CLIP-based subject, object, and union-box representations within the UVTransE framework and propose CREPE (CLIP Representation Enhanced Predicate Estimation). CREPE utilizes text-based representations for all three bounding boxes and introduces a novel contrastive training strategy to automatically infer the text prompt for union-box. Our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance in predicate estimation, mR@5 27.79, and mR@20 31.95 on the Visual Genome benchmark, achieving a 15.3\% gain in performance over recent state-of-the-art at mR@20. This work demonstrates CLIP's effectiveness in object relation prediction and encourages further research on VLMs in this challenging domain.
