TINS method enhances OOD detection in vision-language models

Researchers have developed TINS, a novel method for Out-of-Distribution (OOD) detection in vision-language models. TINS addresses limitations of static negative labels by learning dynamic negative semantics during test-time inference. It employs image-to-text modality inversion and an ID-prototype-separated regularization to prevent contamination from in-distribution concepts. Experiments show significant improvements, such as reducing FPR95 from 14.04% to 6.72% on the Four-OOD benchmark. AI

IMPACT Improves the ability of vision-language models to identify novel or unexpected data, crucial for robust AI deployment.

    TINS: Test-time ID-prototype-separated Negative Semantics Learning for OOD Detection

    Vision-language models enable OOD detection by comparing image alignment with ID labels and negative semantics. Existing negative-label-based methods mainly rely on static negative labels constructed before inference, limiting their ability to cover diverse and evolving OOD conce…
