An Empirical Study of Image Captioning using Deep Learning

Image captioning is one of the most recent challenges that caught the interest of the computer vision community as well as the Natural Language Processing community. Recently, the tedious task of image captioning has attained quite notable progress by using numerous techniques. The primary goal of this paper is to study existing Deep Learning techniques for Image Captioning. We have discussed a convolutional neural network-based Image Caption generation model and the salient steps involved in it. We have also discussed dataset and evaluation metrics widely used in fundamental systems.
