We propose a scalable approach to learn video-based question answering (QA): answer a "free-form natural language question" about a video content. Our approach automatically harvests a large number of videos and descriptions freely…
This paper studies a category of visual question answering tasks, in which accessing external knowledge is necessary for answering the questions. This category is called outside-knowledge visual question answering (OK-VQA). A major step in…
Video Question Answering is a challenging problem in visual information retrieval, which provides the answer to the referenced video content according to the question. However, the existing visual question answering approaches mainly tackle…
Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KVQA) requires external knowledge beyond the visible content to answer questions about an image. This ability is challenging but indispensable to achieve general VQA. One limitation of existing…
Visual question answering (VQA) is a Multidisciplinary research problem that pursued through practices of natural language processing and computer vision. Visual question answering automatically answers natural language questions according…
Visual question answering (VQA) and image captioning require a shared body of general knowledge connecting language and vision. We present a novel approach to improve VQA performance that exploits this connection by jointly generating…
We study the Knowledge-Based visual question-answering problem, for which given a question, the models need to ground it into the visual modality to find the answer. Although many recent works use question-dependent captioners to verbalize…
Large multimodal models (LMMs) have recently demonstrated remarkable performance in video question answering (VideoQA), yet reasoning over video remains challenging due to high inference cost and diluted information. Keyframe selection…
Visual Question Answering (VQA) in its ideal form lets us study reasoning in the joint space of vision and language and serves as a proxy for the AI task of scene understanding. However, most VQA benchmarks to date are focused on questions…
