Visual Distribution Anchoring for Efficient Prompt Tuning

arXiv:2607. 28967v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt tuning adapts vision--language models with few trainable parameters, but existing approaches trade off efficiency and adaptation: static textual prompts can overfit source classes, image-conditioned prompts add per-instance computation, and multimodal tuning modifies the visual branch.

ProCAP: Probabilistic Cross-Attentive Prompt Learning for Vision-Language Models

ProCAP introduces a probabilistic cross-attentive prompt learning framework for vision-language models like CLIP, enabling improved cross-modal interaction without updating the backbone. It jointly learns visual and textual prompt tokens, linking them via stacked bidirectional multi-head cross-attention to refine each branch across prompt depth. The method incorporates Gaussian parameterization of prompt tokens, lightweight KL and L2 regularization, and a compact symmetric InfoNCE head to align image features with class-level text representations, achieving strong few-shot base-to-novel performance and competitive transfer results across multiple datasets and benchmarks.

Adapting Dense Vision-Language Relationships for Multi-label Classification with Partial Label

The paper introduces Language-driven Dense Semantic Adaptor (LDSA) for multi-label image classification with incomplete annotations. LDSA leverages multimodal pretrained CLIP models to extract prior-adaptive relationships, employing a densely contrastive adaptor for visual contrastive constraints and a language-driven interactive decoder with class-specific prompt tuning. Experiments show LDSA achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on public benchmarks and reveals implicit semantic relationships through its learning scheme.
