1 Second Interna,onal Workshop on Parts and A5ributes ECCV 2012, Firenze, Italy October, 2012 Discovering a Lexicon of Parts and Attributes Subhransu Maji Research Assistant Professor Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago

2 Motivation Detailed object recognition Communication requires a lexicon Diverse Visual Categories CUB 200 dataset,visipedia project High%heel(Blue(Shoe( Berg et al., 10 Farhadi et al, 09

3 Source of part and attribute lexicons Field guides provide exhaustive lists when available Expert vs. Layman Task specific vs. not

4 Source of part and attribute lexicons Captioned images Limited by sources of such text Descriptions are often not visual Image from Berg et al., ECCV 10

5 What are good attribute lexicons? Properties It should be easy to communicate It should be easy to differentiate instances from one another images from google, cub 200

6 Discriminative description task Describe the (visual) differences between the two

7 Discriminative description task

8 Discriminative description task Description!"#$%&'(&)'*)#% %&'()$ *'"$)(+,()$ -).$/0&0-$ *'"$-1..)-$

9 Discriminative description task Description Discriminative Description!"#$!"#$%&'(&)'*)#% %&'()$ *'"$)(+,()$ -).$/0&0-$ *'"$-1..)-$!"#$%+",)')-.)#% $%-0%)&&)-$%&'()$!"#$%'"")(+)-$%&'()$ $$0()$)(+,()$!"#$201-$)(+,()"$ $$$$-).$/0&0-$!"#$3*,4)$/0&0-$ -01(.$-1..)-$!"#$%0,(45$-1..)-$ Helps elicit a lexicon that enables fine grained discrimination Is task specific by design

10 Discriminative description task Description Discriminative Description!"#$!"#$%&'(&)'*)#% %&'()$ *'"$)(+,()$ -).$/0&0-$ *'"$-1..)-$!"#$%+",)')-.)#% $%-0%)&&)-$%&'()$!"#$%'"")(+)-$%&'()$ $$0()$)(+,()$!"#$201-$)(+,()"$ $$$$-).$/0&0-$!"#$3*,4)$/0&0-$ -01(.$-1..)-$!"#$%0,(45$-1..)-$ Helps elicit a lexicon that enables fine grained discrimination Is task specific by design Non-accidental properties, Biederman 87 Pragmatics of Language, Levinson 83

11 Collecting descriptions on MTurk Interface on AMT Example annotations free form text (separated by vs ) Minimizes instruction bias Keeps the interface simple

12 Example annotations: airplanes facing left turbofan powered plane longer tail green rudder passenger door open facing right propeller powered plane shorter tail white rudder baggage hold door open" propeller to the body one rudder thin body low wings facing towards left side propeller to the wing two rudders fat body high wings facing slightly towards" Images from airliners.net

13 Example annotations: birds black and white wings white body large eyes small tail v shaped beak spotted wings spotted body small eyes long tail pointed beak" yellow black body pointy beak short tail black spot over head short leg orange brown body shape beak long tail brown stripe over head long leg" Images from CUB 200 dataset

14 Analyzing the text: instance specific properties bird family fur color beak shape tail size beak color beak size tail size wing color head color leg color beak color sitting vs. flying feather color tail size leg color Different properties are revealed for different instances

15 Analyzing the text: instance specific properties Frequency of usage is a measure of its discriminability

16 Analyzing the text: instance specific properties Frequency of usage is a measure of its discriminability

17 Analyzing the text : discovering a lexicon red rudder vs. white rudder pointy nose vs. round nose sentence pairs!"#$!"#$%+",)')-.)#% $%-0%)&&)-$%&'()$!"#$%'"")(+)-$%&'()$

18 Analyzing the text : discovering a lexicon!"#$!"#$%+",)')-.)#% $%-0%)&&)-$%&'()$!"#$%'"")(+)-$%&'()$ red rudder vs. white rudder pointy nose vs. round nose sentence pairs rudder nose parts {red, white} {pointy, round} modifiers

19 Analyzing the text : discovering a lexicon!"#$!"#$%+",)')-.)#% $%-0%)&&)-$%&'()$!"#$%'"")(+)-$%&'()$ red rudder vs. white rudder pointy nose vs. round nose sentence pairs rudder nose parts {red, white} {pointy, round} modifiers Key idea nouns : words that repeat modifiers : words that are different Each sentence has only one noun and modifier

20 Analyzing the text : discovering a lexicon Sentence alignment yellow beak black and white beak Used in NLP to initialize translation tables (IBM models)

21 Analyzing the text : discovering a lexicon Sentence alignment yellow beak black and white beak Used in NLP to initialize translation tables (IBM models) Goals Discover a lexicon of parts, modifiers and part-modifier relations Modifiers should be shared across attributes Estimate the frequency of each attribute
