Abstract The generative zero shot recognition method is affected by redundant information and domain shifting while generating features, and thus its recognition accuracy is poor. To deal with the problem, a zero shot attribute recognition method based on de-redundant features and semantic relationship constraint is proposed. Firstly, the visual features are mapped to a new feature space, and the visual features are de-redundant via cross-correlation information. The redundant visual features are removed with the correlation of the categories preserved. The accuracy of zero shot recognition is improved due to the reduction of redundant information interference in the recognition process. Then, a knowledge transfer model is established using the semantic relationship between the seen and unseen classes, and the loss of semantic relationship is introduced to constrain the process of knowledge transfer. Consequently, the semantic relationship between the seen and unseen classes is reflected better by the visual features generated by the generator ,and the problem of domain shifting between them is alleviated as well. Finally, the cycle consistency structure is introduced to make the generated pseudo-features closer to the real features. Experiments on datasets show that the proposed method improves the accuracy of zero shot recognition tasks with better generalization performance.
