• A CNN/MLP-based method is introduced to extract CNN feature maps and align visual features with text embeddings, reducing reliance on CLIP.method 70%
  Evidencepartial

  To reduce reliance on CLIP and enhance encoding flexibility, we further introduce a CNN/MLP-based method that extracts convolutional neural network (CNN) feature maps and utilizes a multilayer perceptron (MLP) to align visual features with text embeddings.

  Implicationpartial

  This describes an alternative or supplementary technical approach proposed in the paper.
