NOVIC is an innovative real-time image classifier that uses autoregressive transformers to generate classification labels as language. By leveraging CLIP models’ extensive knowledge, NOVIC enables zero-shot transfer from text to images. Unlike traditional CLIP models, which require exhaustive prompts of potential class labels, NOVIC’s object decoder model can output the object noun in question directly from image-derived embedding vectors without requiring any a priori knowledge or label biases. The trained decoders achieve fine-grained prompt-free prediction scores of up to 87.5% on various datasets and benchmarks.

NOVIC is a new way for computers to recognize what’s in pictures. It uses special math called autoregressive transformers to generate words that describe the picture. This is useful because it means we don’t need to know beforehand what might be in an image, or even what language people speak. The system can learn from a huge dataset of labeled objects and captions, and then use this knowledge to predict what’s in new pictures. It works really well, too – in tests, NOVIC was able to correctly identify what was in pictures up to 87.5% of the time.
