Fine-Grained Scene Graph Generation with Data Transfer
share
Scene graph generation (SGG) aims to extract (subject, predicate, object) triplets in images. Recent works have made a steady progress on SGG, and provide useful tools for high-level vision and language understanding. However, due to the data distribution problems including long-tail distribution and semantic ambiguity, the predictions of current SGG models tend to collapse to several frequent but uninformative predicates (e.g., on, at), which limits practical application of these models in downstream tasks. To deal with the problems above, we propose a novel Internal and External Data Transfer (IETrans) method, which can be applied in a play-and-plug fashion and expanded to large SGG with 1,807 predicate classes. Our IETrans tries to relieve the data distribution problem by automatically creating an enhanced dataset that provides more sufficient and coherent annotations for all predicates. By training on the transferred dataset, a Neural Motif model doubles the macro performance while maintaining competitive micro performance. The data and code for this paper are publicly available at <https://github.com/waxnkw/IETrans-SGG.pytorch>
