用语义锚点引导视觉语言模型在测试时自适应,提升鲁棒性。

Semantic Anchor Transport: Robust Test-Time Adaptation for Vision-Language Models

  • 通过最优传输将视觉特征对齐到可靠文本锚点,生成伪标签。
  • 在多个基准上显著提升性能,相比最新方法平均增益超2.5%。
  • 无需额外计算开销,适合实际部署的视觉语言模型优化。

大型预训练视觉语言模型(如CLIP)在零样本任务中表现出色,但在分布偏移下性能会显著下降。本文提出语义锚点传输(SAT),利用类别文本信息生成测试时的伪标签,以缓解分布漂移问题。具体地,通过最优传输实现批量标签分配,将视觉嵌入对齐至可靠的文本语义锚点,构建跨模态对齐机制。SAT进一步采用多模板蒸馏策略,融合异构文本线索,在不增加计算复杂度的前提下模拟无监督表示学习中的多视图对比学习。在多个具有不同复杂度的测试时自适应基准上,SAT展现出一致优势,性能优于近期最先进方法,且计算高效。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large pre-trained vision-language models (VLMs), such as CLIP, have shown unprecedented zero-shot performance across a wide range of tasks. Nevertheless, these models may be unreliable under distributional shifts, as their performance is significantly degraded. In this work, we investigate how to efficiently utilize class text information to mitigate distribution drifts encountered by VLMs during inference. In particular, we propose generating pseudo-labels for the noisy test-time samples by aligning visual embeddings with reliable, text-based semantic anchors. Specifically, to maintain the regular structure of the dataset properly, we formulate the problem as a batch-wise label assignment, which is efficiently solved using Optimal Transport. Our method, Semantic Anchor Transport (SAT), utilizes such pseudo-labels as supervisory signals for test-time adaptation, yielding a principled cross-modal alignment solution. Moreover, SAT further leverages heterogeneous textual clues, with a multi-template distillation approach that replicates multi-view contrastive learning strategies in unsupervised representation learning without incurring additional computational complexity. Extensive experiments on multiple popular test-time adaptation benchmarks presenting diverse complexity empirically show the superiority of SAT, achieving consistent performance gains over recent state-of-the-art methods, yet being computationally efficient.
