Self-Supervised Relation Alignment for Scene Graph Generation
TL;DR: In this paper , a self-supervised relational alignment regularization is proposed to improve the performance of scene graph generation, where an auxiliary relation prediction branch, that mirrors and shares parameters with the supervised counterpart, is designed.

Abstract: The goal of scene graph generation is to predict a graph from an input image, where nodes correspond to identified and localized objects and edges to their corresponding interaction predicates. Existing methods are trained in a fully supervised manner and focus on message passing mechanisms, loss functions, and/or bias mitigation. In this work we introduce a simple-yet-effective self-supervised relational alignment regularization designed to improve the scene graph generation performance. The proposed alignment is general and can be combined with any existing scene graph generation framework, where it is trained alongside the original model's objective. The alignment is achieved through distillation, where an auxiliary relation prediction branch, that mirrors and shares parameters with the supervised counterpart, is designed. In the auxiliary branch, relational input features are partially masked prior to message passing and predicate prediction. The predictions for masked relations are then aligned with the supervised counterparts after the message passing. We illustrate the effectiveness of this self-supervised relational alignment in conjunction with two scene graph generation architectures, SGTR and Neural Motifs, and show that in both cases we achieve significantly improved performance.

BERT: Pre-training of Deep Bidirectional Transformers for Language Understanding
TL;DR: A new language representation model, BERT, designed to pre-train deep bidirectional representations from unlabeled text by jointly conditioning on both left and right context in all layers, which can be fine-tuned with just one additional output layer to create state-of-the-art models for a wide range of tasks.

Faster R-CNN: Towards Real-Time Object Detection with Region Proposal Networks
TL;DR: This work introduces a Region Proposal Network (RPN) that shares full-image convolutional features with the detection network, thus enabling nearly cost-free region proposals and further merge RPN and Fast R-CNN into a single network by sharing their convolutionAL features.

TL;DR: Compared to state-of-the-art detection systems, YOLO makes more localization errors but is less likely to predict false positives on background, and outperforms other detection methods, including DPM and R-CNN, when generalizing from natural images to other domains like artwork.

TL;DR: It is found that BERT was significantly undertrained, and can match or exceed the performance of every model published after it, and the best model achieves state-of-the-art results on GLUE, RACE and SQuAD.

A Simple Framework for Contrastive Learning of Visual Representations
TL;DR: It is shown that composition of data augmentations plays a critical role in defining effective predictive tasks, and introducing a learnable nonlinear transformation between the representation and the contrastive loss substantially improves the quality of the learned representations, and contrastive learning benefits from larger batch sizes and more training steps compared to supervised learning.
