• Abstract: We present Language-binding Object Graph Network, the first neural reasoning method with dynamic relational structures across both visual and textual domains with applications in visual question answering. Relaxing the common assumption made by current models that the object predicates pre-exist and stay static, passive to the reasoning process, we propose that these dynamic predicates expand across the domain borders to include pair-wise visual-linguistic object binding. In our method, these contextualized object links are actively found within each recurrent reasoning step without relying on external predicative priors. These dynamic structures reflect the conditional dual-domain object dependency given the evolving context of the reasoning through co-attention. Such discovered dynamic graphs facilitate multi-step knowledge combination and refinements that iteratively deduce the compact representation of the final answer. The effectiveness of this model is demonstrated on image question answering demonstrating favorable performance on major VQA datasets. Our method outperforms other methods in sophisticated question-answering tasks wherein multiple object relations are involved. The graph structure effectively assists the progress of training, and therefore the network learns efficiently compared to other reasoning models.

  We propose to apply structured alignments, which work with graph representation of visual and textual content. As demonstrated in our experimental results, such a structured alignment improves reasoning performance. The proposed model, without any pretraining, outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on GQA dataset, and beats the non-pretrained state-of-the-art methods on VQA-v2 dataset.

  Video Question Answering (Video QA) is a powerful testbed to develop new AI capabilities. We propose an object-oriented reasoning approach in that video is abstracted as a dynamic stream of interacting objects. This mechanism is materialized into a family of general-purpose neural units and their multi-level architecture.

  We propose an object relationship discovery (ORD) framework to preserve the object interactions for visual dialogue generation. A hierarchical graph convolutional network (HierGCN) is proposed to retain the object nodes and neighbour relationships locally, and then refines the object-object connections globally. Experiments have proved that the proposed method can significantly improve the quality of dialogue by utilising the contextual information of visual relationships.
