CLIP models face "prediction-level hubness" paradox, research finds

A new research paper published on arXiv explores the phenomenon of "prediction-level hubness" in CLIP models, where reducing the modality gap between image and text representations can paradoxically lead to decreased accuracy. The study analyzes how this gap reduction affects the decision structure in zero-shot classification, demonstrating that it can cause predictions to concentrate on a small subset of classes. This effect, termed prediction-level hubness, was observed across various datasets and correction methods, suggesting that modality gap correction should be evaluated not only by alignment but also by its impact on downstream prediction structures.
