Inference on a single image or multiple frames:
# single image, captioning AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'test_git_inference_single_image', \ 'image_path': 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', \ 'model_name': 'GIT_BASE', \ 'prefix': '', \ }" # single image, question answering AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'test_git_inference_single_image', \ 'image_path': 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', \ 'model_name': 'GIT_BASE_VQAv2', \ 'prefix': 'what is it?', \ }" # multiple images, captioning AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'test_git_inference_single_image', \ 'image_path': ['aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg'], \ 'model_name': 'GIT_BASE_VATEX', \ 'prefix': '', \ }" # multiple images, question answering AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'test_git_inference_single_image', \ 'image_path': ['aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/1.jpg'], \ 'model_name': 'GIT_BASE_MSRVTT_QA', \ 'prefix': 'what is it?', \ }"
If prefix
is empty, it is effectively the captioning task.
If prefix
is a question, it is effectively the visual question answering task.
Use a list for image_path
if it is for video. The example here is 6 identical images, only for a demo purpose. It should be different image frames from a video.
model_name
here can be the following. Performance details can be found in the reference paper.
In the dataset of cc12m, the caption may contain some special tags to hide person names and the model might also predict such special tokens. To eliminate this issue, we remove these captions (around 25% in cc12m), and re-trained the large-sized model. The base-sized model is not affected as cc12 is not part of the training data.

'caption'
. For the question answering TSV, it should contain at least question_id
and question

GIT_BASE_COCO
and 138.45 for GIT_LARGE_COCO
. If you get lower score (e.g. 126 for the base model), the reason could be the misalignment of the environment, e.g. pytorch version.nvidia-docker run --ipc=host amsword/setup:py38pt19u20cu11 \ bash -c "mkdir -p /tmp/code \ && cd /tmp/code \ && pip install git+https://github.com/microsoft/azfuse.git \ && git clone https://github.com/amsword/generativeimage2text.git \ && cd generativeimage2text \ && pip install -r requirements.txt \ && python setup.py build develop \ && AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'test_git_inference_single_tsv', \ 'image_tsv': 'data/coco_caption/test.img.tsv', \ 'model_name': 'GIT_BASE_COCO', \ 'question_tsv': null, \ 'out_tsv': 'inference/GIT_BASE_COCO/coco.tsv', \ }" \ && AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'evaluate_on_coco_caption', \ 'res_file': 'inference/GIT_BASE_COCO/coco.tsv', \ 'label_file': 'data/coco_caption/test.caption.tsv', \ 'outfile': 'inference/GIT_BASE_COCO/coco.score.json', \ }" \ && cat inference/GIT_BASE_COCO/coco.score.json \ "

Convert the output tsv to the json format for submission to evalai

Submit the file of inference/GIT_BASE_VQAv2/snapshot/vqav2.json
to evalai and you should get 72.72
on test-dev
. If it is GIT_LARGE_VQAv2
, the accuracy is 75.51
.
(optional) To exactly reproduce the number, you can use the following:
# base model nvidia-docker run --ipc=host amsword/setup:py38pt19u20cu11 \ bash -c "mkdir /tmp/code \ && cd /tmp/code \ && pip install git+https://github.com/microsoft/azfuse.git \ && git clone https://github.com/amsword/generativeimage2text.git \ && cd generativeimage2text \ && pip install -r requirements.txt \ && python setup.py build develop \ && AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'test_git_inference_single_tsv', \ 'image_tsv': 'data/TaxVQAv2/test.tsv', \ 'model_name': 'GIT_BASE_VQAv2', \ 'question_tsv': 'data/TaxVQAv2/test.caption.tsv', \ 'out_tsv': 'inference/GIT_BASE_VQAv2/snapshot/vqav2.tsv', \ }" \ && AZFUSE_TSV_USE_FUSE=1 python -m generativeimage2text.inference -p "{'type': 'convert_tsv_to_vqa_json', \ 'predict_file': 'inference/GIT_BASE_VQAv2/snapshot/vqav2.tsv', \ 'out_json': 'inference/GIT_BASE_VQAv2/snapshot/vqav2.json', \ }" \ }"
Note that, please modify the docker command properly so that the output file can be saved permanently to the host machine. It is also recommended to run it inside the docker container by
nvidia-docker run --ipc=host amsword/setup:py38pt19u20cu11 sleep infinity docker ps # get the docker container ID docker exec -it container_id /bin/bash # attach inside the docker container # all other commands to run the inference.
The repo shows the key code path of constructing the network input with transformations and forward/backward. The code can be plugged into any trainer easily. Here is the example for the base model.
python -m generativeimage2text.train -p "{'type': 'forward_backward_example', \
'image_files': ['aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/2.jpg'], \
'captions': ['a couple of boats in a large body of water.', 'a view of a mountain with a tree'], \
}"
python -m generativeimage2text.train -p "{'type': 'forward_backward_example', \
'image_files': ['aux_data/images/1.jpg', 'aux_data/images/2.jpg'], \
'prefixs': ['what is this?', 'how many trees?'], \
'captions': ['several boats in a large body of water', '1'], \
}"
Save the file of LOC_synset_mapping.txt
from Kaggle. under aux_data/imagenet/
Convert the wordnet ID to readable names as follows
python -m generativeimage2text.data_prepare -p "{'type': 'generate_imagenet_unique_names'}"
The input file is hard coded as ./aux_data/imagenet/LOC_synset_mapping.txt
and the output file is ./aux_data/imagenet/imagenet_unique_readable_names.txt

The model is now available in 🤗 Transformers. You can also find a fine-tuning guide on image captioning with GIT here. Thanks to Niels Rogge for contributing the model to 🤗 Transformers and Sayak Paul for the fine-tuning guide.
Part of the code is based on transformers, clip, maskrcnn-benchmark, oscar, virtex.
