Unified VLP is unified encoder-decoder model for general vision-language pre-training. The models uses a shared multi-layer transformers network for both encoding and decoding. The model is pre-trained on large amount of image-text pairs using the unsupervised learning objectives of two tasks: bidirectional and sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) masked vision-language prediction. Model architecture for pre-training. For pre-training , the input comprises of image input, sentence input, and three special tokens ([CLS], [SEP], [STOP]). The image is processed as N Region of Interests (RoIs) and region features are extracted. The sentence is tokenized and masked with [MASK] tokens for the later masked language modeling task. The model consists of 12 layers of Transformer blocks, each having a masked self-attention layer and feed-forward module, where the self-attention mask controls what input context the prediction conditions on. Two self-attention masks are implemented depending on whether the objective is bidirectional or seq2seq. The model is fine-tuned for image captioning and visual question answering.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (2 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
