# Dual-Path Convolutional Image-Text Embedding



[[Paper]](https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.05535) [[Slide]](http://zdzheng.xyz/files/ZhedongZheng_CA_Talk_DualPath.pdf) :arrow_left: **I recommend to check this slide first.** :arrow_left:



This repository contains the code for our paper [Dual-Path Convolutional Image-Text Embedding](https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.05535). Thank you for your kindly attention. 



### Some News

- Instance Loss (Pytorch version) is now available at https://github.com/layumi/Person_reID_baseline_pytorch/blob/master/instance_loss.py  



**5 Sep 2021** I love the sentence that 'Define yourself via tell what you are different from others' (exemplar SVM), which also is the spirit of the instance loss. 



**11 June 2020** People live in the 3D world. We release one new person re-id code [Person Re-identification in the 3D Space](https://github.com/layumi/person-reid-3d), which conduct representation learning in the 3D space. You are welcomed to check out it.



**30 April 2020** We have won the [AICity Challenge 2020](https://www.aicitychallenge.org/) in CVPR 2020,  yielding the 1st Place Submission to the retrieval track :red_car:. Check out [here](https://github.com/layumi/AICIty-reID-2020).



**01 March 2020** We release one new image retrieval dataset, called [University-1652](https://github.com/layumi/University1652-Baseline), for drone-view target localization and drone navigation :helicopter:. It has a similar setting with the person re-ID. You are welcomed to check out it.

**What's New**: We updated the paper to the second version, adding more illustration about the mechanism of the proposed instance loss.



# Install Matconvnet

I have included my Matconvnet in this repo, so you do not need to download it again.You just need to uncomment and modify some lines in gpu_compile.m and run it in Matlab. Try it~ (The code does not support cudnn 6.0. You may just turn off the Enablecudnn or try cudnn5.1)



If you fail in compilation, you may refer to http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/install/



# Prepocess Datasets

1. Extract wrod2vec weights. Follow the instruction in `./word2vector_matlab`;



2. Prepocess the dataset. Follow the instruction in `./dataset`. You can choose one dataset to run.

Three datasets need different prepocessing. I write the instruction for [Flickr30k](https://github.com/layumi/Image-Text-Embedding/tree/master/dataset/Flickr30k-prepare), [MSCOCO](https://github.com/layumi/Image-Text-Embedding/tree/master/dataset/MSCOCO-prepare) and [CUHK-PEDES](https://github.com/layumi/Image-Text-Embedding/tree/master/dataset/CUHK-PEDES-prepare).



3. Download the model pre-trained on ImageNet. And put the model into './data'.

```

(bash) wget http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/models/imagenet-resnet-50-dag.mat

```

Alternatively, you may try [VGG16](http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/models/imagenet-vgg-verydeep-16.mat) or [VGG19](http://www.vlfeat.org/matconvnet/models/imagenet-vgg-verydeep-19.mat). 



You may have a different split with me. (Sorry, this is my fault. I used a random split.) Just for a backup, this is the [dictionary archive](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Yp6B5GKhgQTD9bsmvmVkvxt-SnmHHjVA) used in the paper.



# Trained Model

You may download the three trained models from ~~[GoogleDrive](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1QxIdJd3oQIJSVVlAxaIZquOoLQahMrWH)~~ [new GoogleDrive](https://drive.google.com/file/d/165nn3Q07nRPGaLqPCCxPI-K5Vi9yNhYu/view?usp=share_link).



# Train

* For Flickr30k, run `train_flickr_word2_1_pool.m` for **Stage I** training.



Run `train_flickr_word_Rankloss_shift_hard` for **Stage II** training.



* For MSCOCO, run `train_coco_word2_1_pool.m` for **Stage I** training.



Run `train_coco_Rankloss_shift_hard.m` for **Stage II** training.



* For CUHK-PEDES, run `train_cuhk_word2_1_pool.m` for **Stage I** training.



Run `train_cuhk_word_Rankloss_shift` for **Stage II** training.



# Test

Select one model and have fun!



* For Flickr30k, run `test/extract_pic_feature_word2_plus_52.m` and to extract the feature from image and text. Note that you need to change the model path in the code. 



* For MSCOCO, run `test_coco/extract_pic_feature_word2_plus.m` and to extract the feature from image and text. Note that you need to change the model path in the code. 



* For CUHK-PEDES, run `test_cuhk/extract_pic_feature_word2_plus_52.m` and to extract the feature from image and text. Note that you need to change the model path in the code.
