ProCLIP framework enhances vision-language alignment using LLMs

Researchers have developed ProCLIP, a novel framework designed to improve vision-language alignment by integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) with the CLIP model. This approach addresses limitations in CLIP's original text encoder, such as its maximum token input length and lack of multilingual support. ProCLIP progressively aligns the CLIP image encoder with an LLM-based embedder, first by distilling CLIP's knowledge into the LLM and then fine-tuning through contrastive learning with self-distillation regularization.
