Hindi Visual Genome 1.1

PID

Data

Hindi Visual Genome 1.1 is an updated version of Hindi Visual Genome 1.0. The update concerns primarily the text part of Hindi Visual Genome, fixing translation issues reported during WAT 2019 multimodal task. In the image part, only one segment and thus one image were removed from the dataset.

Hindi Visual Genome 1.1 serves in "WAT 2020 Multi-Modal Machine Translation Task".

Hindi Visual Genome is a multimodal dataset consisting of text and images suitable for English-to-Hindi multimodal machine translation task and multimodal research. We have selected short English segments (captions) from Visual Genome along with associated images and automatically translated them to Hindi with manual post-editing, taking the associated images into account.

The training set contains 29K segments. Further 1K and 1.6K segments are provided in a development and test sets, respectively, which follow the same (random) sampling from the original Hindi Visual Genome.

A third test set is called ``challenge test set'' consists of 1.4K segments and it was released for WAT2019 multi-modal task. The challenge test set was created by searching for (particularly) ambiguous English words based on the embedding similarity and manually selecting those where the image helps to resolve the ambiguity. The surrounding words in the sentence however also often include sufficient cues to identify the correct meaning of the ambiguous word.

Dataset Formats

The multimodal dataset contains both text and images.

The text parts of the dataset (train and test sets) are in simple tab-delimited plain text files.

All the text files have seven columns as follows:

Column1 - image_id Column2 - X Column3 - Y Column4 - Width Column5 - Height Column6 - English Text Column7 - Hindi Text

The image part contains the full images with the corresponding image_id as the file name. The X, Y, Width and Height columns indicate the rectangular region in the image described by the caption.

The statistics of the current release is given below.
