This codebase provides a Pytorch implementation for the paper Delving into Out-Of-Distribution Detection with Vision-Language Representations at NeurIPS 2022.
Recognizing out-of-distribution (OOD) samples is critical for machine learning systems deployed in the open world. The vast majority of OOD detection methods are driven by a single modality (e.g., either vision or language), leaving the rich information in multi-modal representations untapped. Inspired by the recent success of vision-language pre-training, this paper enriches the landscape of OOD detection from a single-modal to a multi-modal regime. Particularly, we propose Maximum Concept Matching (MCM), a simple yet effective zero-shot OOD detection method based on aligning visual features with textual concepts. We contribute in-depth analysis and theoretical insights to understand the effectiveness of MCM. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MCM achieves superior performance on a wide variety of real-world tasks. MCM with vision-language features outperforms a common baseline with pure visual features on a hard OOD task with semantically similar classes by 13.1% (AUROC).
[Aug 12] 🔥 If you are interested in how parameter-efficient fine-tuning impacts OOD detection for vision-language models, feel free to check out our recent work How Does Fine-Tuning Impact Out-of-Distribution Detection for Vision-Language Models? to appear on International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV), 2023. The code will be released in a separate repo.
Our experiments are conducted on Ubuntu Linux 20.04 with Python 3.8 and Pytorch 1.10. Besides, the following commonly used packages are required to be installed:
- transformers, scipy, scikit-learn, matplotlib, seaborn, pandas, tqdm.
We use the publicly available checkpoints from Hugging Face where the ViT model is pre-trained on ImageNet-21k and fine-tuned on ImageNet-1k. For example, the checkpoint for ViT-B is available here.
For CLIP models, our reported results are based on checkpoints provided by Hugging Face for CLIP-B and CLIP-L. Similar results can be obtained with checkpoints in the codebase by OpenAI.
For complete information, refer to Appendix B in the paper. The default dataset location is ./datasets
.
We consider the following (in-distribution) datasets:
CUB-200
,Standford-Cars
,Food-101
,Oxford-Pet
ImageNet-1k
,ImageNet-10
,ImageNet-20
,ImageNet-100
The ImageNet-1k dataset (ILSVRC-2012) can be downloaded here. ImageNet-10, ImageNet-20, and ImageNet-100 can be generated given the class names and IDs provided in data/ImageNet10/ImageNet-10-classlist.csv
, data/ImageNet20/ImageNet-20-classlist.csv
, and data/ImageNet100/class_list.txt
respectively. The other datasets will be automatically downloaded.
OOD samples that are semantically similar to ID samples are particularly challenging for OOD detection algorithms. However, it is common for the community to use CIFAR-10 (ID) and CIFAR-100 (OOD) as benchmark ID-OOD pairs, which contain low-resolution images that are less realistic.
Therefore, to evaluate hard OOD detection tasks in realistic settings, we consider ImageNet-10 (ID) vs. ImageNet-20 (OOD) and vice versa. The pair consists of high-resolution images with semantically similar categories. For example, we construct ImageNet-10 that mimics the class distribution of CIFAR-10. For hard OOD evaluation, we curate ImageNet-20, which consists of 20 classes semantically similar to ImageNet-10 (e.g., dog (ID) vs. wolf (OOD)).
To create ImageNet-10, 20, and 100, the following script can be used:
# ImageNet-10
python create_imagenet_subset.py --in_dataset ImageNet10 --src-dir datasets/ImageNet --dst-dir datasets
# ImageNet-20
python create_imagenet_subset.py --in_dataset ImageNet20 --src-dir datasets/ImageNet --dst-dir datasets
# ImageNet-100
python create_imagenet_subset.py --in_dataset ImageNet100 --src-dir datasets/ImageNet --dst-dir datasets
Remarks: As ImageNet-10 is less fine-grained than ImageNet-1k, the class n02422699 is referred to as antelope, originally named 'impala' (medium-sized antelopes) in ImageNet-1k, and class n02389026 as horse, originally named 'sorrel' (lighter-shade red horses) in ImageNet-1k. The original names from ImageNet-1k can be used if preferred.
We use the large-scale OOD datasets iNaturalist, SUN, Places, and Texture curated by Huang et al. 2021. Please follow instruction from the this repository to download the subsampled datasets where semantically overlapped classes with ImageNet-1k are removed.
