Query: Independent Prototype Propagation for Zero-Shot Compositionality   Humans are good at compositional zero-shot reasoning; someone who has never
seen a zebra before could nevertheless recognize one when we tell them it looks
like a horse with black and white stripes. Machine learning systems, on the
other hand, usually leverage spurious correlations in the training data, and
while such correlations can help recognize objects in context, they hurt
generalization. To be able to deal with underspecified datasets while still
leveraging contextual clues during classification, we propose ProtoProp, a
novel prototype propagation graph method. First we learn prototypical
representations of objects (e.g., zebra) that are conditionally independent
w.r.t. their attribute labels (e.g., stripes) and vice versa. Next we propagate
the independent prototypes through a compositional graph, to learn
compositional prototypes of novel attribute-object combinations that reflect
the dependencies of the target distribution. The method does not rely on any
external data, such as class hierarchy graphs or pretrained word embeddings. We
evaluate our approach on AO-Clever, a synthetic and strongly visual dataset
with clean labels, and UT-Zappos, a noisy real-world dataset of fine-grained
shoe types. We show that in the generalized compositional zero-shot setting we
outperform state-of-the-art results, and through ablations we show the
importance of each part of the method and their contribution to the final
results.
