Challenge: Existing methods for Concept Learning focus on visual information, but visual information cannot present abstract concepts exactly, which struggles the introduction of novel concepts related to known concepts.
Approach: They propose a benchmark where concepts in diverse forms are defined by linguistic descriptions and an entailment-based concept learning method to model the relationship among concepts.
Outcome: The proposed benchmark is based on the existing visual concepts learning benchmarks and will be released to the public soon.
