ConceptNet488 comprises commonly observed entities and their connections, where edge weights signify the re-489 liability and frequency of these relationships. To prevent the redundancy of common information and to maintain the validity of the enriched491 relations, we categorized the relationships based on their weights. Relationships with weights less492 than 1 were deemed "weak" and those with a weight of 1 were labeled "average". We refrained from493 using these categories for relation enhancement. Instead, only relationships with weights greater than494 1, indicative of high reliability, were employed for augmenting the relations.495

The hyperparameters for training are detailed in Table 7. We perform the human evaluation on two of the four in-depth knowledge quality assessment metrics. V alidity ( "): whether the generated visual knowledge is valid to humans . Conformity ( "): whether the generated knowledge faithfully depicts the scenarios in the images . Our calculated average pairwise Cohen's Suppose you are looking at an image that contains the following subject and object entities: Subject list: [Insert the subject names here] Object list: [Insert the object names here] Please extract 5-10 condensed descriptions that describe the interactions and/or relations among those entities in the image.

Images contain rich relational knowledge that can help machines understand the world. Existing methods on visual knowledge extraction often rely on the pre-defined format (e.g., sub-verb-obj tuples) or vocabulary (e.g., relation types), restricting the expressiveness of the extracted knowledge. In this work, we take a first exploration to a new paradigm of open visual knowledge extraction. To achieve this, we present OpenVik which consists of an open relational region detector to detect regions potentially containing relational knowledge and a visual knowledge generator that generates format-free knowledge by prompting the large multimodality model with the detected region of interest. We also explore two data enhancement techniques for diversifying the generated format-free visual knowledge. Extensive knowledge quality evaluations highlight the correctness and uniqueness of the extracted open visual knowledge by OpenVik. Moreover, integrating our extracted knowledge across various visual reasoning applications shows consistent improvements, indicating the real-world applicability of OpenVik.
