Recurrent Fusion Network for Image Captioning

framework This repository includes the implementations for Recurrent Fusion Network for Image Captioning.

Requirements

Training

0. Feature extraction

All scripts for feature extraction are included in data/feature_extraction. Please generate flipped and cropped images to perform data augmentation, download pre-trained models and extract features with the scripts. All extracted featuers should be put in the data directory.

1. Train with cross entropy loss

bash train_recurrent_fusion_model.sh

2. Training with reinforcement learning

bash train_recurrent_fusion_model_rl.sh

Evaluation

Evaluate with eval_single.sh and eval_ensemble.sh to obtain metric scores for single model and ensemble of multiple models, respectively.
