CLIP-GPT

Initial exploration of fine-tuning GPT-2 for interleaved CLIP embedding input and output. The goal of this project is to showcase that GPT is able to directly reason across multiple modalities.

Data

This exploration makes use of MS-COCO's 2017 training image and caption pairs, which can be downloaded here.

Fine-tuning

We provide a notebook which details our experimental setup and fine-tuning procedure and the following video description:

Will be continuing to elaborate and iterate on the method as we continue.

Results

Caption to CLIP

Using cosine similarity we compute the top-k nearest neighbors for a predicted embedding within the MSCOCO training image set.

CLIP to Caption

Captions produced after passing a CLIP embedding as input.
