pretty_name: EZPC Pre-computed Embeddings
EZPC - Pre-computed CLIP / SigLIP Embeddings
This dataset hosts the pre-computed image embeddings, cached text (classname / concept) embeddings, and class splits used in Explaining CLIP Zero-shot Predictions Through Concepts (CVPR 2026).
Running EZPC from scratch requires extracting CLIP / SigLIP features for every image in five benchmark datasets (CIFAR-100, CUB-200-2011, Places365, ImageNet, ImageNet-100) with multiple backbones. To skip the expensive feature-extraction step, we release the exact tensors we used in the paper - drop them into the EZPC repo's data/ folder and you can train, evaluate, and reproduce quantitative results without touching the raw images.

What's Included
For each of the five datasets and each supported backbone, this repository provides:
- Full train / test embeddings + targets: CLIP/SigLIP image features for every training and test image across all classes, along with their class indices. Useful as a general-purpose feature dump and as the input to
data/split_dataset.pyif you want to regenerate the splits under a different seed or ratio. - Seen-split train / test embeddings: embeddings restricted to the 80% "seen" classes. The train split is used to fit the EZPC projection matrix A; the test split measures GZSL seen-class accuracy.
- Unseen-split train / test embeddings: embeddings restricted to the 20% "unseen" classes held out from training. Used for GZSL unseen-class evaluation (and for the
--target_datasetside of cross-dataset transfer). - Split-aligned target files:
seen_train_ids.pt,seen_test_ids.pt,unseen_train_ids.pt,unseen_test_ids.pt, each giving the class index for every row of the corresponding split. - Class split file: the exact seen / unseen class partition (seed 42, 80/20) used in the paper.
- Cached text embeddings: L2-normalized
"a photo of {x}"text embeddings for class names ({backbone}_classname_embs.pt, shape(C, d)) and concepts ({backbone}_concept_matrix.pt, shape(m, d)).test.pyloads these automatically so evaluation reproduces the reported numbers exactly and independent of GPU / CUDA version — without re-running the CLIP/SigLIP text encoder.
Supported backbones: CLIP RN50, CLIP ViT-B/32, CLIP ViT-L/14, SigLIP ViT-SO400M/14.
Repository Layout
Each dataset follows the same two-level structure: top-level embeddings/ holds the full image feature dump (all classes) plus the cached text embeddings, and embeddings/splits/ holds the seen/unseen partition used throughout the paper.
