Caption Quality Test for Cross-View Geo-Localization

Validate whether generated text captions improve retrieval R@1 in cross-view geo-localization (drone-to-satellite).

Experiments

V3 — GTA-UAV + DINOv3 + LRSCLIP (active)

Asymmetric architecture with domain-specific image encoders and hierarchical text.

LOSS: InfoNCE(query, gallery) — symmetric, learnable temperature
      weights: 0.6 × q→g + 0.4 × g→q

BASELINE: gate = 1.0 (text branch disabled, no DGTRS loaded)

Models:

  • Drone: DINOv3 ViT-L/16 (LVD-1689M, web pretrained) — 1024-dim, 303M params, frozen
  • Satellite: DINOv3 ViT-L/16 (SAT-493M, satellite pretrained) — 1024-dim, 303M params, frozen
  • Text: DGTRS-CLIP ViT-L-14 (LRSCLIP, 248 tokens) — 768-dim, partial unfreeze
  • Total: 733M params, 10.9M trainable (1.49%)

Input: 256x256, ImageNet normalization Training: learnable temperature (CLIP logit_scale), per-group LR (proj 1e-4 / text 1e-5), warmup 2 epochs + cosine, augmentations (drone: crop+flip+rot+jitter+blur, sat: crop+flip+jitter)

Dataset: GTA-UAV-LR (33K drone + 14K satellite, GTA V synthetic)

  • RGB: /home/servml/Документы/datasets/GTA-UAV-LR/
  • Captions: /home/servml/Документы/datasets/GTA-UAV-LR-captions/ (40K JSON, 3-paragraph VLM)
  • Segmentation: /home/servml/Документы/datasets/GTA-UAV-LR-aug/ (17 classes)
  • Seg filter: 37,498 passed / 10,905 excluded (>=90% background+water)
  • Split: 80/20 random (26,966 train / 6,742 test → 24,891/6,252 after seg filter)

V2 — UAV-GeoLoc + GeoRSCLIP (legacy)

Single backbone with template captions.

Query:   drone_img + caption -> GeoRSCLIP -> GatedFusion -> query
Gallery: sat_img -> GeoRSCLIP -> gallery

Dataset: UAV-GeoLoc Terrain split (206K train queries)

Workflow (V3 — GTA-UAV)

1. Create 80/20 split and filter segmentation

python -m scripts.make_split --output-dir meta
python -m scripts.filter_segmentation --output meta/seg_filter.json

2. Train baseline (no text)

python -m src.training.train_gtauav --baseline --filter-meta meta/seg_filter.json

3. Train with captions (L1/L2/L3)

python -m src.training.train_gtauav --filter-meta meta/seg_filter.json

4. Compare and get verdict

python -m scripts.compare_runs \
    --baseline_report out/gtauav/baseline/eval_report.json \
    --full_report out/gtauav/with_text/eval_report.json \
    --output out/gtauav/comparison.md

Decision rule

Delta R@1 (drone->satellite) Verdict
>= +3% PASS -- captions informative, proceed to NADEZHDA teacher
+1% to +3% MARGINAL -- add VLM refinement, re-run
0 to +1% WEAK -- redesign caption pipeline
< 0 HARMFUL -- critical bug
