The passage around this formula
Radford and colleagues’ 2021 paper, “Learning Transferable Visual Models From Natural Language Supervision,” is usually remembered simply as CLIP, and the compression loses the specific thing that made it a turning point rather than an incremental improvement. The method itself is not exotic: encode an image, encode its paired caption, and train both encoders so that the true pairing scores higher than every mismatched pairing drawn from the same batch. For a batch of B image-text pairs with normalised image embedding , text embedding , and a learned temperature , the symmetric form of the objective is . an image-to-text and a text-to-image cross-entropy…
