Superpixel Semantics Representation and Pre-training for Vision-Language Task
The key to integrating visual language tasks is to establish a good alignment strategy. Recently, visual semantic representation has achieved fine-grained visual understanding by dividing grids or image patches. However, the coarse-grained semantic interactions in image space should not be ignored, which hinders the extraction of complex contextual semantic relations at the scene boundaries. This paper proposes superpixels as comprehensive and robust visual primitives, which mine coarse-grained semantic interactions by clustering perceptually similar pixels, speeding up the subsequent processing of primitives. To capture superpixel-level semantic features, we propose a Multiscale Difference Graph Convolutional Network (MDGCN). It allows parsing the entire image as a fine-to-coarse visual hierarchy. To reason actual semantic relations, we reduce potential noise interference by aggregating difference information between adjacent graph nodes. Finally, we propose a multi-level fusion rule in a bottom-up manner to avoid understanding deviation by mining complementary spatial information at different levels. Experiments show that the proposed method can effectively promote the learning of multiple downstream tasks. Encouragingly, our method outperforms previous methods on all metrics. Our code will be released upon publication.
