  • Description: During a lifetime, a person can have many wonderful and memorable moments that he/she wants to keep. With the development of technology, people now can store a massive amount of lifelog information via images, videos or texts. Inspired by this, we develop a system to automatically generate caption from lifelog pictures taken from wearable cameras. Following up on our previous method introduced at the SoICT 2018 conference, we propose two improvements in our captioning method. We trained and tested the model on the baseline MSCOCO datasets and evaluated on different metrics. The results show better performance compared to our previous model and to some other image captioning methods. Our system also shows effectiveness in retrieving relevant data from captions and achieve high rank in ImageCLEF 2018 retrieval challenge.
