Query: Dense Contrastive Visual-Linguistic Pretraining   Inspired by the success of BERT, several multimodal representation learning
approaches have been proposed that jointly represent image and text. These
approaches achieve superior performance by capturing high-level semantic
information from large-scale multimodal pretraining. In particular, LXMERT and
UNITER adopt visual region feature regression and label classification as
pretext tasks. However, they tend to suffer from the problems of noisy labels
and sparse semantic annotations, based on the visual features having been
pretrained on a crowdsourced dataset with limited and inconsistent semantic
labeling. To overcome these issues, we propose unbiased Dense Contrastive
Visual-Linguistic Pretraining (DCVLP), which replaces the region regression and
classification with cross-modality region contrastive learning that requires no
annotations. Two data augmentation strategies (Mask Perturbation and
Intra-/Inter-Adversarial Perturbation) are developed to improve the quality of
negative samples used in contrastive learning. Overall, DCVLP allows
cross-modality dense region contrastive learning in a self-supervised setting
independent of any object annotations. We compare our method against prior
visual-linguistic pretraining frameworks to validate the superiority of dense
contrastive learning on multimodal representation learning.
