Image caption generation using transfer learning

Abstract

This paper describes an image caption generation system using deep neural networks. The model is trained to maximize the probability of generated sentence, given the image. The model utilizes transfer learning in the form of pretrained convolutional neural networks to preprocess the image data. The datasets are composed of a still photographs and associated with it, five captions in English language. Constructed model is compared to other similarly constructed models using BLEU score system and ways to further improve its performance are proposed.
