Prerequisites

• python 2.7. (with scikit-image and lmdb)
• caffe (with pycaffe)

Tour

Code

1. score_model.py: Defines the SCoRe model.
2. score_train.py: Training script.
3. score_eval.py: Evaluation script.
4. tools/prepare_LMDBs.py: Script for preparing LMDBs used in score_train.py and score_test.py.

Type python xxx.py --help for usage options.

For a better understanding of the workflow of our code, a script train_eval_CUB.sh is provided for training a SCoRe model on the CUB dataset. This script 1) downloads all required data (CUB and caffemodels for standard CNNs), 2) prepares LMDBs for both images and semantics, 3) trains the classifier and 4) evaluates on source and target (Zero-Shot) classes.

Data

1. Semantic codewords: Pre-extracted for all classes in both AwA and CUB datasets (see data/).
2. Partition into source and target classes: see classes.txt, train_classes.txt and test_classes.txt at data/${DB}.
3. Training sets: data/${DB}/train_images.txt
4. Test sets: data/${DB}/testRecg_images.txt (source classes) and data/${DB}/testZS_images.txt (target classes).

Results

Mean class accuracy for source and target classes using three architectures: AlexNet, GoogLeNet and VGG19.

Note: Lagrangian coefficients were tuned for Zero-Shot MCA on a set of validation classes. Obtained coefficients are shown below.
