Recent literature has repeatedly shown the limitations of such a tokenization strategy, particularly for… Learning from Rich Semantics and Coarse Locations for Long-tailed Object Detection Long-tailed object detection (LTOD) aims to handle the extreme data imbalance in real-world datasets, where many tail classes have scarce instances. One popular strategy is to explore extra data with image-level labels, yet it produces limited results due to (1) semantic ambiguity -- an image-level... Evaluating the Fairness of Discriminative Foundation Models in Computer Vision We propose a novel taxonomy for bias evaluation of discriminative foundation models, such as Contrastive Language-Pretraining (CLIP), that are used for labeling tasks. We then systematically evaluate existing methods for mitigating bias in these models with respect to our taxonomy. Specifically, we...
