Haoxuan You, Rui Sun, Zhecan Wang, Long Chen, Gengyu Wang, Hammad Ayyubi, Kai-Wei Chang, Shih-Fu Chang
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to decompose VL reasoning rely on domain-specific sub-question decomposing models. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework that iteratively decomposes VL reasoning using large language models. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms existing models on multiple VL reasoning tasks. |
Find Someone Who: Visual Commonsense Understanding in Human-Centric Grounding (2022.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Visual scenes often involve multiple people and humans can distinguish between them based on context descriptions about what happened before, their mental/physical states, and intentions. |
| Approach: | They propose a task that tests human-centric commonsense grounding models' ability to distinguish individuals given context descriptions about what happened before and their mental/physical states or intentions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms pre-trained and non-pretrained models on 130k commonsense descriptions annotated on 67k images. |
Unsupervised Vision-and-Language Pre-training Without Parallel Images and Captions (2021.naacl-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models require large amounts of image-caption data for pre-training . existing models require expensive data collection and curation . |
| Approach: | They propose to conduct "mask-and-predict" pre-training on text-only and image-only corpora and introduce the object tags detected by an object recognition model as anchor points to bridge two modalities. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach achieves performance close to a model pre-trained with aligned data, on four English benchmarks. |
UniFine: A Unified and Fine-grained Approach for Zero-shot Vision-Language Understanding (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | supervised methods for vision-language tasks have been well-studied, but they lack the fine-grained information needed for semantics understanding. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework to take advantage of fine-grained information for zero-shot vision-language learning, covering multiple tasks such as VQA, SNLI-VE, and VCR. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms previous zero-shot methods on VQA and achieves substantial improvement on SNLI-VE and VCR. |
Understanding ME? Multimodal Evaluation for Fine-grained Visual Commonsense (2022.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing models that understand image and text but also cross-reference in-between are lacking in evaluation data resources. |
| Approach: | They propose a multimodal evaluation pipeline to automatically generate question-answer pairs to test models’ understanding of the visual scene, text, and related knowledge. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can answer the highly semantic VCR question correctly but fails to answer related visual question (Q2), textual question (q3), and background knowledge question ( Q4) as shallow mappings with language priors and unbalanced utilization of information between modalities. |

Zhecan Wang, Long Chen, Haoxuan You, Keyang Xu, Yicheng He, Wenhao Li, Noel Codella, Kai-Wei Chang, Shih-Fu Chang
| Challenge: | Existing studies have examined dataset biases in VQA benchmarks with short-phrase answers Multiple-choice Question with the LONG Answers (VCR, VLEP, etc.) |
| Approach: | They propose to use Adversarial Data Synthesis (ADS) to generate synthetic training and debiased evaluation data and introduce Intra-sample Counterfactual Training (ICT) to assist models in utilizing synthesized training data. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach improves model performance even in domain-shifted scenarios. |
