Official code for "Cross-modal Retrieval with Noisy Correspondence via Consistency Refining and Mining" paper link: [http://pengxi.me/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/pengxime-online.pdf]

Requirements

Please follow these commands:

conda create -n cream python=3.7
conda install scikit-learn
conda install nltk
conda install pytorch==1.7.1 torchvision==0.8.2 torchaudio==0.7.2 cudatoolkit=11.0 -c pytorch
pip install matplotlib

After creating the environment, you need to download punkt as follows:

python
>>> import nltk
>>> nltk.download()
> d punkt

Those pre-trained models can be downloaded from: [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-OFZ4k1x2F0d0tgBznffNQf1aoRRvDT6?usp=sharing]

After downloading those models, you need to place them as follows:

  |--model_ckpt
     |--cream_models
        |--cc152k
        |--coco_n2
        |--f30k_n2
        |-- ...

Data

We follow NCR [https://github.com/XLearning-SCU/2021-NeurIPS-NCR/] to obtain image features and vocabularies. After downloading the data, you need to place the folders as follows:

    |--data
       |--data
          |--cc152k_precomp
          |--coco_precomp
          |--f30k_precomp
       |--vocab
          |--cc152k_precomp_vocab.json
          |--coco_precomp_vocab.json
          |--f30k_precomp_vocab.json

Training

python run.py --data_name=f30k_precomp --noise_ratio=0.2 --num_epochs=40

You can change --noise_ratio=0.2 to 0.4 | 0.6 | 0.8 to conduct more experiments on Flickr30K.

python run.py --data_name=cc152k_precomp --num_epochs=40

As CC152K is a real-world dataset, there is no need to set --noise_ratio.

python run.py --data_name=coco_precomp --noise_ratio=0.2 --num_epochs=20

You can change --noise_ratio=0.2 to 0.4 | 0.6 | 0.8 to conduct more experiments on MS-COCO.

Evaluating

python evaluation.py

This will evaluate all the models in the model_path="./model_ckpt/cream_models/". If you need to evaluate one model, just change model_path in evaluation.py.

About Graph Matching

Those codes are placed in another repository [https://github.com/allenHearst/CREAM-Graph-Matching/].
