Implementing image captioning with and without soft attention model on the Flickr8k dataset.

This is my implementation of the Show, Attend and Tell paper.

Taken assistance from the blogpost: https://machinelearningmastery.com/develop-a-deep-learning-caption-generation-model-in-python/

You can see my implementation at this Kaggle kernel. The attention model was not successfully implemented, which is why I trained my model without it.

The highest BLEU scores after 20 epochs were:

BLEU-1: 53.0076%

BLEU-2: 28.6551%

BLEU-3: 19.7607%

BLEU-4: 9.4241%

This is the first implementation and will be optimized further.
