Although zero-shot learning (ZSL) has an inferential capability of recognizing new classes that have never been seen before, it always faces two fundamental challenges of the cross modality and crossdomain challenges. In order to alleviate these problems, we develop a generative network-based ZSL approach equipped with the proposed Cross Knowledge Learning (CKL) scheme and Taxonomy Regularization (TR). In our approach, the semantic features are taken as inputs, and the output is the synthesized visual features generated from the corresponding semantic features. CKL enables more relevant semantic features to be trained for semantic-to-visual feature embedding in ZSL, while Taxonomy Regularization (TR) significantly improves the intersections with unseen images with more generalized visual features generated from generative network. Extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets (i.e., AwA1, AwA2, CUB, NAB and aPY) show that our approach is superior to these state-of-the-art methods in terms of ZSL image classification and retrieval.

Zero-Shot Learning (ZSL) is an emerging research that aims to solve the classification problems with very few training data. The present works on ZSL mainly focus on the mapping of learning semantic space to visual space. It encounters many challenge s that obstruct the progress of ZSL research. First, the representation of the semantic feature is inadequate to represent all features of the categories. Second, the domain drift problem still exists during the transfer from semantic space to visual space. In this paper, we introduce knowledge sharing (KS) to enrich the representation of semantic features. Based on KS, we apply a generative adversarial network to generate pseudo visual features from semantic features that are very close to the real visual features. Abundant experimental results from two benchmark datasets of ZSL show that the proposed approach has a consistent improvement.
We improve zero-shot learning (ZSL) by incorporating common-sense knowledge in DNNs. We propose Common-Sense based Neuro-Symbolic Loss (CSNL) that formulates prior knowledge as novel neuro-symbolic loss functions that regularize visual-semantic embed ding. CSNL forces visual features in the VSE to obey common-sense rules relating to hypernyms and attributes. We introduce two key novelties for improved learning: (1) enforcement of rules for a group instead of a single concept to take into account class-wise relationships, and (2) confidence margins inside logical operators that enable implicit curriculum learning and prevent premature overfitting. We evaluate the advantages of incorporating each knowledge source and show consistent gains over prior state-of-art methods in both conventional and generalized ZSL e.g. 11.5%, 5.5%, and 11.6% improvements on AWA2, CUB, and Kinetics respectively.
Zero-shot learning (ZSL) aims at understanding unseen categories with no training examples from class-level descriptions. To improve the discriminative power of ZSL, we model the visual learning process of unseen categories with inspiration from the psychology of human creativity for producing novel art. First, we propose CIZSL-v1 as a creativity inspired model for generative ZSL. We relate ZSL to human creativity by observing that ZSL is about recognizing the unseen, and creativity is about creating a likable unseen. We introduce a learning signal inspired by creativity literature that explores the unseen space with hallucinated class-descriptions and encourages careful deviation of their visual feature generations from seen classes while allowing knowledge transfer from seen to unseen classes. Second, CIZSL-v2 is proposed as an improved version of CIZSL-v1 for generative zero-shot learning. CIZSL-v2 consists of an investigation of additional inductive losses for unseen classes along with a semantic guided discriminator. Empirically, we show consistently that CIZSL losses can improve generative ZSL models on the challenging task of generalized ZSL from a noisy text on CUB and NABirds datasets. We also show the advantage of our approach to Attribute-based ZSL on AwA2, aPY, and SUN datasets. We also show that CIZSL-v2 has improved performance compared to CIZSL-v1.
Contemporary state-of-the-art approaches to Zero-Shot Learning (ZSL) train generative nets to synthesize examples conditioned on the provided metadata. Thereafter, classifiers are trained on these synthetic data in a supervised manner. In this work, we introduce Z2FSL, an end-to-end generative ZSL framework that uses such an approach as a backbone and feeds its synthesized output to a Few-Shot Learning (FSL) algorithm. The two modules are trained jointly. Z2FSL solves the ZSL problem with a FSL algorithm, reducing, in effect, ZSL to FSL. A wide class of algorithms can be integrated within our framework. Our experimental results show consistent improvement over several baselines. The proposed method, evaluated across standard benchmarks, shows state-of-the-art or competitive performance in ZSL and Generalized ZSL tasks.

Zero-shot learning (ZSL) refers to the problem of learning to classify instances from the novel classes (unseen) that are absent in the training set (seen). Most ZSL methods infer the correlation between visual features and attributes to train the cl assifier for unseen classes. However, such models may have a strong bias towards seen classes during training. Meta-learning has been introduced to mitigate the basis, but meta-ZSL methods are inapplicable when tasks used for training are sampled from diverse distributions. In this regard, we propose a novel Task-aligned Generative Meta-learning model for Zero-shot learning (TGMZ). TGMZ mitigates the potentially biased training and enables meta-ZSL to accommodate real-world datasets containing diverse distributions. TGMZ incorporates an attribute-conditioned task-wise distribution alignment network that projects tasks into a unified distribution to deliver an unbiased model. Our comparisons with state-of-the-art algorithms show the improvements of 2.1%, 3.0%, 2.5%, and 7.6% achieved by TGMZ on AWA1, AWA2, CUB, and aPY datasets, respectively. TGMZ also outperforms competitors by 3.6% in generalized zero-shot learning (GZSL) setting and 7.9% in our proposed fusion-ZSL setting.
