Towards open vocabulary learning: A survey
This survey offers a detailed examination of the latest developments in open vocabulary learning in computer vision, which appears to be a first of its kind. We provide an overview of the necessary background knowledge, which includes fundamental concepts and introductory knowledge of detection, segmentation, and vision language pre-training. Following that, we summarize more than 50 different models used for various scene understanding tasks. For each task, we categorize the methods based on their technical viewpoint. Additionally, we provide information regarding several closely related domains. In the experiment section, we provide a detailed description of the settings and compare results fairly. Finally, we summarize several challenges and also point out several future research directions for open vocabulary learning.
