What is Computer Vision in the Wild?

⭐ Goals of CVinW

Developing a transferable foundation model/system that can effortlessly adapt to a large range of visual tasks in the wild. It comes with two key factors: (i) The task transfer scenarios are broad, and (ii) The task transfer cost is low. The main idea is illustrated as follows, please see the detailed description in ELEVATER paper.

1️⃣ Task Transfer Scenarios are Broad

We illustrate and compare CVinW with other settings using a 2D chart in Figure 1, where the space is constructed with two orthogonal dimensions: input image distribution and output concept set. The 2D chart is divided into four quadrants, based on how the model evaluation stage is different from model development stage. For any visual recognition problems at different granularity such as image classification, object detection and segmentation, the modeling setup cann be categorized into one of the four settings. We see an emerging trend on moving towards CVinW. Interested in the various pre-trained vision models that move towards CVinW? please check out Section 🔥``Papers on Task-level Transfer with Pre-trained Models''.

  • The Close-Set Setting. Both training and evaluation distributions are consistent in both dimensions, a typical setting in ML/CV textbooks.
  • Open-Set/Vocabulary/World Setting. It allows new concepts in evaluation, while typically remains the same visual domain. Please see examples in image classification and object detection.
  • Domain Generalization Setting. Domain shift allows new visual domain in evaluation, while typically remains the same concept pool. Please see examples such as DomainBed and DomainNet.
  • Computer Vision in the Wild Setting. CVinW allows the flexibility in both dimensions, where any new tasks/datasets in the wild essentially fall into.
A brief definition with a four-quadrant chart Figure 1: The comparison of CVinW with other existing settings

2️⃣ Task Transfer Cost is Low

One major advantage of pre-trained models is the promise that they can transfer to downstream tasks effortlessly. The model adaptation cost is considered in two orthogonal dimensions: sample-efficiency and parameter-efficiency, as illustrated in Figure 2. The bottom-left corner and top-right corner is the most inexpensive and expensive adaptation strategy, respectively. One may interpolate and make combinations in the 2D space, to get different model adaptation methods with different cost. To efficient adapt large vision models of the gradaully increaseing size, we see an emerging need on efficient model adaptation. Interested in contributing your smart efficient adaptation algorithms and see how it differs from existing papers? please check out Section ❄️``Papers on Efficient Model Adaptation'' .

  • Sample-efficiency: Zero-, Few-, and Full-shot. Due to the high cost of annotating data, it is often desired to provide a small number of labeled image-label pairs in downstream datasets. Transferable models should be able to reach high performance in this data-limited scenario..
  • Parameter-efficiency: Frozen Model Inference, Prompting Tuning, Linear Probing vs Full Model Fine-tuning.. A smaller number of trainable parameter in model adaptation typically means a small training cost in a new task.

📙 Grounded Image Generation in the Wild

🆕 This is a new research topic: grounded image generation based on any open-set concept, include text and visual prompt. All the text-to-image pre-trained generation models allow open-set prompting at the image-level, and thus belong to ``Grounded Image Generation in the Wild'' by default. This paper collection focuses on more fine-grained controlability in the image generation, such as specifying new concept at the the level of bounding box, masks, edge/depth maps etc.
