Low recall when testing on flickr30k-cn dataset

[Qiulin-W]

Hi, thanks for the great work!

I tested the pretrained model for zero-shot img2text and text2img retrieval on flickr30k-cn validation set. The bboxes are obtained as indicated in https://github.com/chuhaojin/BriVL-BUA-applications. For each image, we only select the one caption with the highest fluency score. However, the recall@1 for the two task is only 15.93% and 13.74%, respectively. The same evaluation for ViLT reaches 73.2% and 55.0%. I'm wondering whether you test on this dataset? Any comments on my results?

p.s. An example json file of the dataset is as follows

Hi, there are many reasons: 1. Our model is pre-trained on weak semantic correlation data crawled from the web while ViLT is pre-trained on strong semantic correlation data. Flickr30K is also a strong correlation dataset. 2. The translation of Flickr30K inevitably brings negative effects.
