The paper proposes a new evaluation metric for caption generation, called PAC-S++. This metric uses the CLIP model to leverage both web-collected and cleaned data, as well as regularized through additional pairs of generated visual and textual positive samples. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of PAC-S++ compared to popular metrics, such as its sensitivity to object hallucinations. Furthermore, they show that integrating PAC-S++ into the fine-tuning stage of a captioning model results in semantically richer captions with fewer repetitions and grammatical errors. Evaluations on out-of-domain benchmarks further demonstrate the efficacy of their fine-tuning approach.

This paper is about finding a better way to measure how good a computer-generated description of an image or video is. Right now, we use simple methods that don’t really capture what makes a great caption. The authors propose a new method called PAC-S++ that uses a special kind of AI model trained on lots of data. They tested their approach and found it worked better than other methods, making the captions more detailed and accurate.
