In the past few years, automatically generating descriptions for images has attracted a lot of attention in computer vision and natural language processing research. Among the existing approaches, data-driven methods have been proven to be highly effective. These methods compare the given image against a large set of training images to determine a set of relevant images, then generate a description using the associated captions. In this study, the authors propose to integrate an object-based semantic image representation into a deep features-based retrieval framework to select the relevant images. Moreover, they present a novel phrase selection paradigm and a sentence generation model which depends on a joint analysis of salient regions in the input and retrieved images within a clustering framework. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of their proposed approach on Flickr8K and Flickr30K benchmark datasets and show that their model gives highly competitive results compared with the state-of-the-art models.
