Cap2Aug: Caption guided Image to Image data Augmentation

Visual recognition in a low-data regime is challenging and often prone to overfitting. To mitigate this issue, several data augmentation strategies have been proposed. However, standard transformations, e.g., rotation, cropping, and flipping provide limited semantic variations. To this end, we propose Cap2Aug, an image-to-image diffusion model-based data augmentation strategy using image captions as text prompts.
