A Survey on Causal Inference in Image Captioning
2023 International Conference on Electronics, Information, and Communication (ICEIC)(2023)
Abstract
Although numerous research efforts in the field of Image Captioning (IC) have been conducted, the problem of dataset bias, which causes spurious correlations during training, remains. Recent studies in vision-language (VL) tasks have proposed causal inference as a debiasing method, showing significantly advanced performances. In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art IC models based on causal inference and categorize them according to their adjustment. We aim to provide an understanding of how causal inference can be utilized in IC. Furthermore, since IC is one of the foundations in VL tasks, we believe that this review will also help to get insight when applying causal inference in other VL tasks.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
