model transfers non-trivially to most tasks and is often competitive with a fully supervised baseline without the need
for any dataset specific training. For instance, we match the accuracy of the original ResNet-50 on ImageNet zero-shot
without needing to use any of the 1.28 million training examples it was trained on. We release our code and pre-trained
model weights at this https URL.
Usage
CLIP is a multi-modal vision and language model. It can be used for image-text similarity and for zero-shot image
classification. CLIP uses a ViT like transformer to get visual features and a causal language model to get the text
features. Both the text and visual features are then projected to a latent space with identical dimension. The dot
product between the projected image and text features is then used as a similar score.
