LaKo: Knowledge-driven Visual Question Answering via Late Knowledge-to-Text Injection
Visual question answering (VQA) often requires an understanding of visual concepts and language semantics, which relies on external knowledge. Most existing methods exploit pre-trained language models or/and unstructured text, but the knowledge in these resources are often incomplete and noisy. Some other methods prefer to use knowledge graphs (KGs) which often have intensive structured knowledge, but the research is still quite preliminary. In this paper, we propose LaKo, a knowledge-driven VQA method via Late Knowledge-to-text Injection. To effectively incorporate an external KG, we transfer triples into textual format and propose a late injection mechanism for knowledge fusion. Finally we address VQA as a text generation task with an effective encoder-decoder paradigm, which achieves state-of-the-art results on OKVQA dataset.

Knowledge Acquisition for Visual Question Answering via Iterative Querying
Humans possess an extraordinary ability to learn new skills and new knowledge for problem solving. Such learning ability is also required by an automatic model to deal with arbitrary, open-ended questions in the visual w…

Thylakoid membranes are the site of oxygenic photosynthesis, one of the most important biochemical processes on earth. The ancestral state of these membranes is represented today in Gloeobacterales, where they are lackin…
Ow\'oksape - An Online Language Learning Platform for Lakota
This paper presents Ow{\'o}ksape, an online language learning platform for the under-resourced language Lakota. The Lakota language (LakÈŸ{\'o}tiyapi) is a Siouan language native to the United States with fewer than 2000…
Explicit Reasoning over End-to-End Neural Architectures for Visual Question Answering
Many vision and language tasks require commonsense reasoning beyond data-driven image and natural language processing. Here we adopt Visual Question Answering (VQA) as an example task, where a system is expected to answe…
