Webly Supervised Multi-Label Recognition: Evaluation Benchmark and Dual-Branch Multi-Label Contrastive Learning

Zhihua Xu, Zhijing Yang, Yufeng Yang, Tianshui Chen

Training deep learning models with freely available web images can reduce their dependence on costly manual annotations. Although webly supervised learning has been widely studied for single-label recognition, its multi-label counterpart remains underexplored, partly due to the lack of unified benchmarks and fair comparison protocols. To address this gap, we construct a benchmark for webly supervised multi-label recognition (WS-MLR), including Web-COCO and Web-Pascal, and re-implement representative baselines under a unified setting. The two datasets cover the same 80 and 20 categories as MS-COCO and Pascal VOC, respectively, and contain about 300 thousand images retrieved from the Internet using category-word combinations as search keywords. We further propose a Dual-Branch Multi-Label Contrastive Learning (DBMLCL) framework, which learns category-specific instance-level and category-level representations together with their similarities to identify and correct noisy labels. Extensive experiments on the benchmark demonstrate that DBMLCL achieves superior performance compared to representative baselines.
