Image caption generation using a dual attention mechanism

In order to create a statement that accurately captures the main idea of an ambiguous visual, which is said to be a significant and demanding task? Conventional image captioning schemes are categorized into 2 classes: retrieval-oriented schemes and generation-oriented schemes. The image caption generating system should provide precise, fluid, natural, and informative phrases as well as accurately identify the content of the image, such as scene, object, relationship, and properties of the object in the image. However, it can be challenging to accurately express the image's content when creating image captions because not all visual information can be used. In this article, a new image captioning model is introduced that includes 3 main phases like (1) Extraction of Inception V3 features (2) Dual (Visual and Textual) attention generation and (3) generation of image caption. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is used to generate visual attention after first deriving initial V3 features. The input texts for the associated images, on the other hand, are analyzed and given to LSTM for the creation of textual attention. To create image captions, Bidirectional LSTM (BI-LSTM) is used to combine textual and visual attention. The Self Improved Electric Fish Optimization (SI-EFO) algorithm is used in particular to optimize the weights of the BI-LSTM. In the end, several measures confirm that the implemented system has improved. The adopted model is 35.21%, 33.76%, 39.52%, 29.69%, 30.12%, 21.49%, and 31.71% better than GAN-RL, LSTM, GRU, EC + GOA, EC + CMBO, EC + DA, EC + EFO models.
