Abstract
Image captioning applications require prompt and precise caption generation, which can improve the accessibility and understanding capabilities of images. We utilize an actor-critic approach based on deep reinforcement learning and propose a two-fold approach to enhance the performance of the actor-critic approach. First, we propose a novel image-text matching module to compute the reward in image-matching, for the actor-critic model. This module enables more accurate and meaningful evaluations, contributing to improved caption generation. Second, we apply various training scenarios in reinforcement learning, strategically updating both the policy and value networks. The scenarios ensure more effective learning dynamics and lead to enhanced overall performance. To assess the efficiency of our approach, we employ the Microsoft COCO dataset. The experiments demonstrate the superiority of our method in terms of both speed and precision compared to the existing techniques.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
