Model overview

The fashion-clip model is a CLIP-based model developed by maintainer patrickjohncyh to produce general product representations for fashion concepts. Leveraging the pre-trained checkpoint (ViT-B/32) released by OpenAI, the model was trained on a large, high-quality novel fashion dataset to study whether domain-specific fine-tuning of CLIP-like models is sufficient to produce product representations that are zero-shot transferable to entirely new datasets and tasks.

The model was further fine-tuned on the laion/CLIP-ViT-B-32-laion2B-s34B-b79K checkpoint, which the maintainer found worked better than the original OpenAI CLIP on fashion tasks. This updated "FashionCLIP 2.0" model achieves higher performance across several fashion-related benchmarks compared to the original OpenAI CLIP and the initial FashionCLIP model.

Model inputs and outputs

Inputs

  • Images: The fashion-clip model takes images as input to generate product representations.
  • Text: The model can also accept text prompts, which are used to guide the representation learning.

Outputs

  • Image Embeddings: The primary output of the fashion-clip model is a vector representation (embedding) of the input image, which can be used for tasks like image retrieval, zero-shot classification, and downstream fine-tuning.

Capabilities

The fashion-clip model is capable of producing general product representations that can be used for a variety of fashion-related tasks in a zero-shot manner. The model's performance has been evaluated on several benchmarks, including Fashion-MNIST, KAGL, and DEEP, where it outperforms the original OpenAI CLIP model and achieves state-of-the-art results on the updated "FashionCLIP 2.0" version.

What can I use it for?

The fashion-clip model can be used for a variety of fashion-related applications, such as:

  • Image Retrieval: The model's image embeddings can be used to perform efficient image retrieval, allowing users to find similar products based on visual similarity.

  • Zero-Shot Classification: The model can be used to classify fashion items into different categories without the need for task-specific fine-tuning, making it a powerful tool for applications that require flexible and adaptable classification capabilities.

  • Downstream Fine-tuning: The model's pre-trained representations can be used as a strong starting point for fine-tuning on more specific fashion tasks, such as product recommendation, attribute prediction, or outfit generation.

Things to try

One interesting aspect of the fashion-clip model is its ability to generate representations that are "zero-shot transferable" to new datasets and tasks. Researchers and developers could explore how well these representations generalize to fashion-related tasks beyond the benchmarks used in the initial evaluation, such as fashion trend analysis, clothing compatibility prediction, or virtual try-on applications.

Additionally, the model's performance improvements when fine-tuned on the laion/CLIP-ViT-B-32-laion2B-s34B-b79K checkpoint suggest that further exploration of large-scale, domain-specific pretraining data could lead to even more capable fashion-oriented models. Experimenting with different fine-tuning strategies and data sources could yield valuable insights into the limits and potential of this approach.
