SynCLIP: Synonym-Coherent Language-Image Pretraining for Robust Open-Vocabulary Dense Perception
Open-vocabulary dense perception (OVDP) aims to localize objects unseen during training by leveraging textual knowledge. Despite the remarkable progress of recent CLIP-based approaches, we identify a critical limitation: synonym-induced grounding inconsistency, where semantically equivalent expressions yield disparate spatial attention patterns. This inconsistency undermines the robustness and performance of existing methods in real-world OVDP applications. To address this issue, we propose SynC
