让视觉模型更听懂指令,持续学习不遗忘语言信息。

Instruction-Grounded Visual Projectors for Continual Learning of Generative Vision-Language Models

  • 用多专家视觉投影器,按指令类型动态选择翻译方式。
  • 实验显示在多个任务上生成响应更符合指令要求。
  • 适合需要长期学习新任务且保持指令遵循能力的研究者。

持续学习使预训练生成式视觉语言模型(VLMs)能在不重新训练旧数据的情况下,学习新任务知识。现有方法通过更新视觉投影器将视觉信息转换为适配新任务的表示,连接预训练视觉编码器与大语言模型。然而,这类调整可能导致模型过度依赖视觉输入而忽略语言指令,尤其在重复性文本指令的任务中更为明显。为此,我们提出一种基于指令的视觉投影框架,将视觉信息的翻译过程与语言指令上下文对齐。引入多视觉投影器混合结构,每个投影器作为特定指令上下文下的视觉到语言翻译专家,以适应新任务。为避免在无关指令情境下调用专家,设计专家推荐策略,复用此前已学习任务中的相似专家。同时引入专家剪枝机制,减轻因前序任务累积激活导致的干扰。在多种视觉语言任务上的大量实验表明,本方法优于现有持续学习方法,能生成更符合指令要求的响应。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Continual learning enables pre-trained generative vision-language models (VLMs) to incorporate knowledge from new tasks without retraining data from previous ones. Recent methods update a visual projector to translate visual information for new tasks, connecting pre-trained vision encoders with large language models. However, such adjustments may cause the models to prioritize visual inputs over language instructions, particularly learning tasks with repetitive types of textual instructions. To address the neglect of language instructions, we propose a novel framework that grounds the translation of visual information on instructions for language models. We introduce a mixture of visual projectors, each serving as a specialized visual-to-language translation expert based on the given instruction context to adapt to new tasks. To avoid using experts for irrelevant instruction contexts, we propose an expert recommendation strategy that reuses experts for tasks similar to those previously learned. Additionally, we introduce expert pruning to alleviate interference from the use of experts that cumulatively activated in previous tasks. Extensive experiments on diverse vision-language tasks demonstrate that our method outperforms existing continual learning approaches by generating instruction-following responses.
