Blind-VaLM

Official implementation of our paper "Improving the Efficiency of Visually Augmented Language Models". Please cite our paper if you find this repository helpful in your research.

Environment Setup

Create a virtual environment and run

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then the revised fairseq and ather packages will be installed.

Text Preparation

The preprocessing of the text training data is the same as in VaLM, i.e:

  1. Download the CC100-EN dataset which is available at CC100-EN.
  2. Split the dataset using the script ./data/roberta-cc100-ori/split_roberta_cc100.py.py.
  3. Shard the dataset. The sharding script is available at ./data/roberta-cc100-ori/sharded_data.py.
  4. Preprocess the data:
bash myscripts/preprocess_valm_text.sh

Training Blind-VaLM

  • For training Blind-VaLM on multiple data shards with 4 A100 gpus:
bash myscripts/train_blindVaLM.sh.sh
  • For training Blind-VaLM on more data shards with 4 A100 gpus:
bash train_blindVaLM_moreUpd.sh
  • For training Blind-VaLM on multiple data shards using a GPT2-Medium backbone with 8 A100 gpus:
bash train_blindVaLM_medium.sh
  • For training text-only baseline GPT-2, run:
bash myscripts/train_gpt_small.sh

Evaluating Blind-VaLM

  • Evaluate the trained checkpoint on object color reasoning (Memory Colors, Color Terms and ViComTe, respectively):
srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_color_prediction.py --path /path/to/ckpt
srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_color_prediction.py --path /path/to/ckpt  --color-terms
srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_color_prediction_ViComTe.py --path /path/to/ckp  --obj_truth
  • Evaluate the trained checkpoint on object shape reasoning (Shape It):
srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_shape_reason_ShapeItc.py -path /path/to/ckp  --p number_of_prompt
  • Evaluate the trained checkpoint on object size reasoning (Relative Size, ViComTe and Things Not Written in Text, respectively):
(prompt 1) srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_size_reason_combinedSizes_p1.py --path /path/to/ckp  --data-path ./data/object_size/relative_size.jsonl 
(prompt 2) srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_size_reason_combinedSizes_p2.py --path /path/to/ckp --data-path ./data/object_size/relative_size.jsonl

(prompt 1) srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_size_reason_combinedSizes_p1.py --path /path/to/ckp 
(prompt 2) srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_size_reason_combinedSizes_p2.py --path /path/to/ckp

(prompt 1) srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_size_reason_combinedSizes_p1.py --path /path/to/ckp --tnwt
(prompt 2) srun python evaluation_scripts/verify_size_reason_combinedSizes_p2.py --path /path/to/ckp --tnwt
  • Evaluate the trained checkpoint on language modeling (Wikitext-103 and Lambada, respectively):
fairseq-eval-lm ./data/wikitext-103/ --batch-size 4 --sample-break-mode eos --path /path/to/ckpt
fairseq-eval-lm ./data/lambada/ --batch-size 4 --sample-break-mode eos --path /path/to/ckpt
python evaluation_scripts/eval_lambada.py --data-path ./data/lambada/lambada_test.jsonl --preprocess --path /path/to/ckpt
  • Evaluate the trained checkpoint on natural language understanding (MPQA, STT-2, DBPedia and AGNews respectively):
srun python evaluation_scripts/eval_posNeg.py --path /path/to/ckpt --data-path ./data/mpqa/test.json                  
srun python evaluation_scripts/eval_posNeg.py --path /path/to/ckpt 
srun python evaluation_scripts/eval_dbp_agn.py --path /path/to/ckpt 
srun python evaluation_scripts/eval_dbp_agn.py --path /path/to/ckpt  --agn
