摘要

En 中文
Traditional techniques for visual question answering (vQA) are mostly end-to-end neural network based, which often perform poorly (e.g., low accuracy) due to lack of understanding and reasoning. To overcome the weaknesses, we propose a comprehensive approach with following key features. (1) It represents inputs, i.e., an image f and a natural language question Q(nl) as an entity-attribute graph and a query graph, respectively, and employs pattern matching to find answers; (2) it leverages reinforcement learning based model to identify a set of policies that are used to guide visual tasks and construct an entity-attribute graph, based on Q(nl); (3) it employs a novel method to parse a question Q(nl) and generate corresponding query graph Q(u(o)) for pattern matching; and (4) it integrates inference scheme to further improve result accuracy, in particular, it learns a graph-structured classifier for missing value inference and a co-occurrence matrix for candidate selection. With these features, our approach can not only process visual tasks efficiently, but also answer questions with high accuracy. To evaluate the performance of our approach, we conduct empirical studies on Soccer, Visual-Genome and GQA, and show that our approach outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in result accuracy and system efficiency.
