Visual question answering (VQA) requires systems to perform concept-level reasoning by unifying unstructured (e.g., the context in question and answer; "QA context") and structured (e.g., knowledge graph for the QA context and scene;…
Information retrieval based knowledge base question answering (KBQA) first retrieves a subgraph to reduce search space, then reasons on the subgraph to select answer entities. Existing approaches have three issues that impede the retrieval…
