This is the Chinese version of CLIP. We use a large-scale Chinese image-text pair dataset (~200M) to train the model, and we hope that it can help users to conveniently achieve image representation generation, cross-modal retrieval and zero-shot image classification for Chinese data. This repo is based on open_clip project. We have made some optimization for better performance on Chinese data, and we provide the details in the following.

Results

We conducted zero-shot inference and finetuning experiments on MUGE Retrieval, Flickr30K-CN and COCO-CN for the evaluation of cross-modal retrieval, and conducted experiments on 10 image classification datasets of the ELEVATER benchmark for the evaluation of zero-shot image classification. Results are shown below. Due to space limitation, here we only list the performance of the best performing Chinese-CLIP and baseline models. For detailed performance of each Chinese-CLIP model size, please refer to Results.md.

Getting Started

Installation Requirements

To start with this project, make sure that your environment meets the requirements below:

  • python >= 3.6.4
  • pytorch >= 1.8.0 (with torchvision >= 0.9.0)
  • CUDA Version >= 10.2

Run the following command to install required packages.

pip install -r requirements.txt

API Use Case

We provide a simple code snippet to show how to use the API for Chinese-CLIP. For starters, please install cn_clip:

# to install the latest stable release
pip install cn_clip

# or install from source code
cd Chinese-CLIP
pip install -e .

After installation, use Chinese CLIP to compute the image (example) & text embeddings and similarities as shown below:

import torch 
from PIL import Image

import cn_clip.clip as clip
from cn_clip.clip import load_from_name, available_models
print("Available models:", available_models())  
# Available models: ['ViT-B-16', 'ViT-L-14', 'ViT-L-14-336', 'ViT-H-14', 'RN50']

device = "cuda" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
model, preprocess = load_from_name("ViT-B-16", device=device, download_root='./')
model.eval()
image = preprocess(Image.open("examples/pokemon.jpeg")).unsqueeze(0).to(device)
text = clip.tokenize(["杰尼龟", "妙蛙种子", "小火龙", "皮卡丘"]).to(device)

with torch.no_grad():
    image_features = model.encode_image(image)
    text_features = model.encode_text(text)
    # Normalize the features. Please use the normalized features for downstream tasks.
    image_features /= image_features.norm(dim=-1, keepdim=True) 
    text_features /= text_features.norm(dim=-1, keepdim=True)      

    logits_per_image, logits_per_text = model.get_similarity(image, text)
    probs = logits_per_image.softmax(dim=-1).cpu().numpy()

print("Label probs:", probs)  # [[1.268734e-03 5.436878e-02 6.795761e-04 9.436829e-01]]

However, if you are not satisfied with only using the API, move on for more details about training and inference.

Tutorial

Currently, we provide the tutorial of cross-modal retrieval and zero-shot image classification below.

Cross-Modal Retrieval

Code Organization

After cloning this project, please create a new directory ${DATAPATH} for datasets, checkpoints and logs. A recommended workspace structure is demonstrated below:

Chinese-CLIP/
├── run_scripts/
│   ├── muge_finetune_vit-b-16_rbt-base.sh
│   ├── flickr30k_finetune_vit-b-16_rbt-base.sh
│   └── ...           # more scripts for finetuning and evaluation...
└── src/
    ├── clip/
    ├── eval/
    ├── preprocess/
    └── training/

${DATAPATH}
├── pretrained_weights/
├── experiments/
├── deploy/	      # store ONNX & TensorRT deployment models
└── datasets/
    ├── MUGE/
    ├── Flickr30k-CN/
    └── .../          # more datasets...

Preparation

We provide links for the downloading of pretrained checkpoints, as well as the data preprocessing procedures for finetuning.

Pretrained Checkpoints

Please refer to model card section above and download the model checkpoint. We recommend putting the checkpoint in ${DATAPATH}/pretrained_weights/.

Data Preprocessing

We advise to organize the data in the following way to ensure the efficiency of accessing and processing data:

${DATAPATH}
└── datasets/
    └── ${dataset_name}/
        ├── train_imgs.tsv      # image id & image content
        ├── train_texts.jsonl   # text id & text content, with list of paired image ids
        ├── valid_imgs.tsv
        ├── valid_texts.jsonl
        ├── test_imgs.tsv
        └── test_texts.jsonl

where ${dataset_name} refers to the name of dataset (e.g., MUGE).

To ensure the efficiency of processing data, we did not store images with small files, but instead we encode them to base64 strings and store them in ${split}_imgs.tsv. Each line represents an image, where there are id (int) and base64 string, split by \t, as shown below:

1000002	/9j/4AAQSkZJ...YQj7314oA//2Q==

Transforming image files to base64 strings is simple. Run the following code:

from PIL import Image
from io import BytesIO
import base64

img = Image.open(file_name) # path to file
img_buffer = BytesIO()
img.save(img_buffer, format=img.format)
byte_data = img_buffer.getvalue()
base64_str = base64.b64encode(byte_data) # bytes
base64_str = base64_str.decode("utf-8") # str

Texts and image-text pairing relations are stored in ${split}_texts.jsonl, where each line is a json as shown below:

{"text_id": 8428, "text": "高级感托特包斜挎", "image_ids": [1076345, 517602]}

For the test set where only the texts are given and the image-text pairing relations are unknown, just leave the image_ids field as an empty list, "image_ids": [].

Finally, we need to serialize tsv and jsonl and transform them to LMDB files, which is easy for random access during training.

python src/preprocess/build_lmdb_dataset.py \
    --data_dir ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}
    --splits train,valid,test

For example, for the MUGE dataset, we name ${dataset_name} to MUGE. --splits refers to dataset splits,split by commas without space. After that, there will be LMDB files in the directory.

${DATAPATH}
└── datasets/
    └── ${dataset_name}/
        └── lmdb/
            ├── train
            │   ├── imgs
            │   └── pairs
            ├── valid
            └── test

For easier use, we have provided preprocessed MUGE (download link) and Flickr30K-CN (download link) datasets in zip format. To use them, just download and unzip it under ${DATAPATH}/datasets/. If you need COCO-CN dataset, please contact us by email when you have finished applying for permission from the original author.

Finetuning

We introduce the procedures of training for users to learn about the details of the model. We finetune with the pretrained Chinese CLIP. For MUGE and Flickr30K-CN, we provide scripts run_scripts/muge_finetune_vit-b-16_rbt-base.sh and run_scripts/flickr30k_finetune_vit-b-16_rbt-base.sh. The scripts support single-worker and distributed training. Before running, follow the instructions at the beggining of the scripts and fill in your configuration for distributed training. Then run the scripts to start your training. If the GPU memory is insufficient, you can consider to activate the gradient checkpointing strategy in the configuration. Logs and checkpoints will be saved at your specified paths.

cd Chinese-CLIP/
bash run_scripts/muge_finetune_vit-b-16_rbt-base.sh ${DATAPATH}

The configuration for training includes:

  • Distributed training
    • WORKER_CNT: the number of machines.
    • GPUS_PER_NODE: the number of GPUS on each machine.
  • Data for training/validation
    • train-data: directory of training data. Follow the procedures above the create LMDB files.
    • val-data: directory of validation data. If set to None, validation during finetuning will be disabled.
    • num-workers: the number of workers for training set dataloader, default to 4.
    • valid-num-workers: the number of workers for validation set dataloader, default to 1.
  • Training hyper-params
    • vision-model: specified visual backbones. Select from ["ViT-B-16", "ViT-L-14", "ViT-L-14-336", "ViT-H-14", "RN50"].
    • text-model: specified language backbones. Select from ["RoBERTa-wwm-ext-base-chinese", "RoBERTa-wwm-ext-large-chinese", "RBT3-chinese"].
    • context-length: sequence length for text inputs.
    • warmup: steps for warmup.
    • batch-size: batch size for a worker (make sure that the number of training samples larger than batch-size * GPUs).
    • lr: learning rate.
    • wd: weight decay.
    • max-steps: training steps. Also you can set max-epochs to set the number of training epochs.
    • freeze-vision: whether to freeze the visual backbone.
    • use-augment: whether to use AutoAugment for data augmentation.
    • valid-batch-size: validation batch size for a worker (make sure that the number of validation samples larger than valid-batch-size * GPUs).
    • valid-step-interval and valid-epoch-interval: validation step / epoch frequency, if set to -1 then validation will be disabled during finetuning.
    • grad-checkpointing: use gradient checkpointing which does not keep the activations during forward computation, this strategy trades more computation and iteration time for less GPU memory cost. (store_true argument, just add --grad-checkpointing in the script to activate it, requires Pytorch>1.8.0)
    • mask-ratio: use FLIP strategy which randomly masks a ratio of image patches to save GPU memory and speed up training. Default to 0.0, which disables the strategy.
    • use-flash-attention: whether to use FlashAttention, which can significantly speed up the finetune process and reduce the memory usage. (store_true argument, after configuring the environment, just add --use-flash-attention in the script to activate it, please see flash_attention_En.md for more information)
    • accum-freq: Gradient accumulation frequency, default is 1. Specify an integer greater than 1 to enable gradient accumulation to simulate a larger batch size. if the batch size for a worker is m, the total batch size is accum_freq * m * GPUs.
    • gather-with-grad: Whether to enable full distributed gradient for feature gather, off by default.
  • Ouputs
    • name: specified output path. Hyperparameter logs, training logs, and checkpoints will be saved at ${DATAPATH}/experiments/${name}/.
    • save-step-frequency and save-epoch-frequency: the intervals for saving checkpoints.
    • report-training-batch-acc: whether to report the in-batch image-to-text and text-to-image retrieval accuracy.
  • Checkpoints
    • resume: the checkpoint path for weights to restore. In the provided example script, the path refers to the pretrained checkpoint path. Users can change to your own checkpoint path.
    • reset-data-offset: whether to restore training at the data breakpoint.
    • reset-optimizer: whether to restore the optimizer state.

After training, the log will be saved at ${DATAPATH}/experiments/${name}/out_${timestamp}.log. Example of log is shown below:

2022-12-11,20:40:34 | INFO | Rank 0 | Global Steps: 1/735 | Train Epoch: 1 [1024/250880 (0%)] | Loss: 2.371020 | Image2Text Acc: 49.90 | Text2Image Acc: 48.73 | Data Time: 1.039s | Batch Time: 3.625s | LR: 0.000000 | logit_scale: 4.605 | Global Batch Size: 1024

The example of validation log is shown below:

2022-12-11,20:42:47 | INFO | Rank 0 | Validation Result (epoch 1 @ 150 steps) | Valid Loss: 0.502810 | Image2Text Acc: 84.95 | Text2Image Acc: 84.26 | logit_scale: 4.605 | Valid Batch Size: 128

Attention: The convergence and stability of contrastive learning is highly relevant to the total batch size. If you use a smaller batch size, (in comparison with the default 128 per-GPU * 8 GPU), we advise you to use a smaller learning rat. We recommend using more GPUs and larger batch size for better performance.

Inference and Evaluation

We provide procedures for representation generation and cross-modal retrieval, as demonstrated below:

Image/Text Representation Generation

By now the code supports representation generation with a single worker, please use the following commands. Besides, we provide support for deploying ONNX and TensorRT models to accelerate feature inference, see deployment_En.md for details.

cd Chinese-CLIP/
export CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0
export PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:`pwd`/src

split=valid # validation / test set
resume=${DATAPATH}/pretrained_weights/clip_cn_vit-b-16.pt

python -u src/eval/extract_features.py \
    --extract-image-feats \
    --extract-text-feats \
    --image-data="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/lmdb/${split}/imgs" \
    --text-data="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_texts.jsonl" \
    --img-batch-size=32 \
    --text-batch-size=32 \
    --context-length=52 \
    --resume=${resume} \
    --vision-model=ViT-B-16 \
    --text-model=RoBERTa-wwm-ext-base-chinese

By default, the representations are stored at ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}. Specifically, the image representations are stored at ${split}_imgs.img_feat.jsonl. Each line stores a json of image representation, as shown below:

{"image_id": 1000002, "feature": [0.0198, ..., -0.017, 0.0248]}

Text representations are stored at ${split}_texts.txt_feat.jsonl,as shown below:

{"text_id": 248816, "feature": [0.1314, ..., 0.0018, -0.0002]}

KNN Retrieval

For small-scale retrieval datasets, we provide a simple implementation of KNN retrieval, to facilitate the retrieval of top-k results in cross-modal retrieval. (tips: If you want to build a retrieval demo in your project like us, we suggest first to use Chinese-CLIP to compute image and text embeddings, and then employ an opensource servering framework clip-retrieval to deploy the front-end and back-end servering.)

For text-to-image retrieval, run the commands below:

cd Chinese-CLIP/
split=valid # validation / test splits
python -u src/eval/make_topk_predictions.py \
    --image-feats="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_imgs.img_feat.jsonl" \
    --text-feats="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_texts.txt_feat.jsonl" \
    --top-k=10 \
    --eval-batch-size=32768 \
    --output="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_predictions.jsonl"

Results are stored at specified jsonl files. Each line consists of top-k image ids for a text query, as shown below:

{"text_id": 153915, "image_ids": [5791244, 1009692167, 7454547004, 3564007203, 38130571, 2525270674, 2195419145, 2503091968, 4966265765, 3690431163]}

For image-to-text retrieval, run the commands below:

split=valid # validation / test splits
python -u src/eval/make_topk_predictions_tr.py \
    --image-feats="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_imgs.img_feat.jsonl" \
    --text-feats="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_texts.txt_feat.jsonl" \
    --top-k=10 \
    --eval-batch-size=32768 \
    --output="${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_tr_predictions.jsonl"

Results are stored at specified jsonl files. Each line consists of top-k text ids for an image query, as shown below:

{"image_id": 977856234, "text_ids": [156914, 157914, 158914, 155914, 156179, 158907, 157179, 154179, 154914, 154723]}

Recall Metric

We provide scripts for computing the Recall@1/5/10 and mean recall (the mean of Recall@1/5/10). Run the commands to get the scores:

For text-to-image retrieval, run the commands below:

split=valid # validation / test splits
python src/eval/evaluation.py \
        ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_texts.jsonl \
        ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_predictions.jsonl \
        output.json
cat output.json

For image-to-text retrieval, run the commands first to transform text-to-image jsonls to image-to-text ones:

python src/eval/transform_ir_annotation_to_tr.py \
        --input ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_texts.jsonl

After that, run the following commands

split=valid # validation / test splits
python src/eval/evaluation_tr.py \
        ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_texts.tr.jsonl \
        ${DATAPATH}/datasets/${dataset_name}/${split}_tr_predictions.jsonl \
        output.json
cat output.json

The printed results are shown below:

{"success": true, "score": 85.67, "scoreJson": {"score": 85.67, "mean_recall": 85.67, "r1": 71.2, "r5": 90.5, "r10": 95.3}}

For better understanding of cross-modal retrieval by Chinese-CLIP, we also provide a runnable jupyter notebook (download link), which works with the MUGE retrieval dataset (corresponding leaderboard is hosted on Tianchi) and includes the finetuning and inference process mentioned above. Welcome to try!


Zero-shot Image Classification

This section introduces the use of Chinese-CLIP for zero-shot image classification. We use the experiment on a dataset of the benchmark ELEVATER as an example. ELEVATER is a benchmark consist of several widely used classification datasets and evaluates the zero-shot performance on these datasets, including CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, MNIST, etc. In our experiments, we have perpared Chinese prompts and label names with the original images for each ELEVATER dataset (refer to Notes for datasets for download) to evaluate Chinese-CLIP. For more information about ELEVATER, please click this link. Users can also follow the procedure below to prepare and evaluate their own classification datasets.

Preparation

We need to prepare only the test set and the pretrained Chinese-CLIP checkpoint. It's recommended to prepare these directories under a user defined ${DATAPATH} and organize them as follows:

${DATAPATH}
├── pretrained_weights/
└── datasets/
    └── ${dataset_name}/
        ├── label_cn.txt
        └── test/
	    ├── 000/ # label id,fill 0 by the left to 3 digits so that the labels can be alphabetically ordered
	    │   ├── image_0003.jpg # image sample, no specific requirements for the naming
	    │   ├── image_0005.jpg
	    │   └── ...
	    ├── 001/
	    │   ├── image_0001.jpg
	    │   ├── image_0002.jpg
	    │   └── ...
	    └── 002/
	        ├── image_0003.jpg
	        ├── image_0005.jpg
	        └── ...
	    ...
	

Make sure the data are categorized by their label id, and make sure the ids are alphabetically orderd (for numbers larger than 10, uselabel.zfill(3) to fill 0 by the left to 3 digits, like 001,002, etc). label_cn.txt refers to the file of label names. Each line has a label name, as demonstrated below:

accordion
airplane
anchor
...

The label id is [line number]-1. For example, the label id for the first line is 0, and the one for the second line is 1. If the number of labels is larger than 10, all labels are filled with 0 by the left to 3-digit numbers. For example, if the number of labels is 100, the ids are 000-099. Users should create a directory for each label, and put the corresponding samples into the directories. We provide the processed dataset CIFAR-100 as an example, and please click this link to download the prepared dataset. To evaluate other datasets of ELEVATER, please refer to Notes for datasets for download.

Prediction and Evaluation

We provide a script for prediction and evaluation. Please check run_scripts/zeroshot_eval.sh for more details. An example command is shown below:

bash run_scripts/zeroshot_eval.sh 0 \
   ${DATAPATH} ${dataset_name} \
   ${vision_model} ${text_model} \
   ${ckpt_path} ${index_file}

where the arguments stand for:

  • the first argument 0 refers to the GPU ID
  • DATAPATH refers to the root directory storing the checkpoint and dataset, as mentioned in Preparation part above
  • dataset_name refers to the directory name of the dataset, e.g. cifar-100, as mentioned in Preparation part above
  • vision_model refers to the type of vision encoder, including ["ViT-B-32", "ViT-B-16", "ViT-L-14", "ViT-L-14-336", "RN50", "ViT-H-14"]
  • text_model refers to the type of text encoder, including ["RoBERTa-wwm-ext-base-chinese", "RoBERTa-wwm-ext-large-chinese", "RBT3-chinese"]
  • ckpt_path refers to the complete path of the pretrained Chinese-CLIP checkpoint
  • index_file is optional and only needed when you would like to submit to ELEVATER official website. Please refer to Notes for datasets for more details

For example, to evaluate ViT-B/16 on CIFAR-100, please run (the ${DATAPATH} should be replaced with your real path):

bash run_scripts/zeroshot_eval.sh 0 \
    ${DATAPATH} cifar-100 \
    ViT-B-16 RoBERTa-wwm-ext-base-chinese \
    ${DATAPATH}/pretrained_weights/clip_cn_vit-b-16.pt

Top-1 accuracy will be printed.

Result:
zeroshot-top1: 0.6444

On CIFAR-100, the ViT-B/16 model of Chinese-CLIP will achieve the accuracy of 64.4%. For the zero-shot evaluation results of other model scales and other datasets, please refer to Results.md.

Also, a json file will be saved, which serves the submission of ELEVATER. An example of the json file is shown below:

{"model_name": "CN-CLIP-ViT-B-16", "dataset_name": "cifar-100", "num_trainable_params": 0, "num_params": 188262913, "num_visual_params": 86192640, "num_backbone_params": 188262913, "n_shot": 0, "rnd_seeds": [123], "predictions": "prediction probability tensor [size: (1, 10000, 100)]"}

It includes meta data like the name of model model_name, the dataset name dataset_name, the number of parametersnum_params, the number of parameters of vision encoder num_visual_params, and also the outputs of the model, namely the predicted probability tensor, whose size is [1, num_samples, num_labels].

Zero-Shot Classification Online Demo

Based on the representation generation API which we have integrated into Huggingface transformers, we are able to provide online demos of zero-shot classification task on Huggingface Model Hub🤗 for each scale of Chinese-CLIP model. The links are given below:
