An Effective Levelling Paradigm for Unlabeled Scenarios

Advancements in direct-integration fine-tuning frameworks have underscored their potential to enhance the performance of labeled scenarios and tasks. To enhance the generalization of different categories in the same dataset, some methods have added visual loss to these frameworks for unlabeled scenarios. However, the performance of these methods through visual loss does not improve significantly in domain generalization and cross-dataset generalization tasks. This may be attributed to the uncoordinated learning of the two-modalities alignment and visual loss. To mitigate this issue of uncoordinated learning, we propose a novel method called Levelling Paradigm (LePa) to improve performance for unlabeled tasks or scenarios. The proposed LePa, designed as a plug-in module, dynamically constrains and coordinates multiple objective functions, thereby improving the generalization of these baseline methods. Comprehensive experiments have shown that our design can effectively address generalized scenarios and tasks.
