title: Zero-Shot Recognition through Image-Guided Semantic Classification
abstract: We present a new visual-semantic embedding method for generalized zero-shot learning. Existing embedding-based methods aim to learn the correspondence between an image classifier (visual representation) and its class prototype (semantic representation) for each class. Inspired by the binary relevance method for multi-label classification, we learn the mapping between an image and its semantic classifier. Given an input image, the proposed Image-Guided Semantic Classification (IGSC) method creates a label classifier, being applied to all label embeddings to determine whether a label belongs to the input image. Therefore, a semantic classifier is image conditioned and is generated during inference. We also show that IGSC is a unifying framework for two state-of-the-art deep-embedding methods. We validate our approach with four standard benchmark datasets.
