Abstract

In an approach to augmenting a caption dataset by leveraging a denoising autoencoder to sample and generate additional captions from the ground truth captions, one or more computer processors generate a plurality of new captions utilizing an autoencoder fed with one or more noisy captions, wherein the autoencoder is trained with a dataset comprising a plurality of ground truth captions. The one or more computer processors calculate an importance weight for each new caption in the plurality of generated new captions as compared to a plurality of associated ground truth captions based on a consensus metric. The one or more computer processors train a caption model with the generated plurality of new captions and associated calculated weights.
