Story Generation from Images Using Deep Learning

Recently, the problem of creating descriptive captions for images became a significant one. However, human languages' expressivity had been among the challenges that hindered researchers from widely experimenting with creating linguistically rich captions for images. That motivated us to utilize advanced deep learning algorithms to generate captions for images. The researchers proposed an AI model utilizing deep learning and natural language processing algorithms, which has two main components, an image-feature extractor, and a story generator. The researchers trained the first component (image-feature extractor) of the model to predict object names in images. The second component (story-generator) was trained on a custom short descriptive sentence which considered short stories. So, the output from the first component (list of words) will be entered into the second component to generate stories on input images. Thus, when testing the model's performance, a list of names will be entered from the first component so that the second generator arranges them and generates a short story from them. The proposed model developed could generate a short story expressive of an input image as shown by the results of a logical value used on the BLEU scale of 0.59, which further research is planned to improve.
