• Abstract: We tackle the challenge of Visual Question Answering in multi-image setting for the ISVQA dataset. Traditional VQA tasks have focused on a single-image setting where the target answer is generated from a single image. Image set VQA, however, comprises of a set of images and requires finding connection between images, relate the objects across images based on these connections and generate a unified answer. In this report, we work with 4 approaches in a bid to improve the performance on the task. We analyse and compare our results with three baseline models - LXMERT, HME-VideoQA and VisualBERT - and show that our approaches can provide a slight improvement over the baselines. In specific, we try to improve on the spatial awareness of the model and help the model identify color using enhanced pre-training, reduce language dependence using adversarial regularization, and improve counting using regression loss and graph based deduplication. We further delve into an in-depth analysis on the language bias in the ISVQA dataset and show how models trained on ISVQA implicitly learn to associate language more strongly with the final answer.

  We introduce Self-Training on Image (STIC), which emphasizes a self-training approach specifically for image comprehension. First, the model self-constructs a preference for image descriptions using unlabeled images. To further self-improve reasoning on the extracted visual information, we let the model reuse a small portion of existing instruction-tuning data.

  The task of composed image retrieval (CIR) aims to retrieve images based on the query image and the text describing the users' intent. Existing methods have made great progress with the advanced large vision-language (VL) model in CIR task, however, they generally suffer from two main issues: lack of labeled triplets for model training and difficulty of deployment on resource-restricted environments. We propose Image2Sentence based Asymmetric zero-shot composed image retrieval (ISA), which takes advantage of the VL model and only relies on unlabeled images for composition learning.

  In this paper, we explore effective prompting techniques to enhance zero- and few-shot Visual Question Answering (VQA) performance. We identify that specific templates significantly influence VQA outcomes, underscoring the need for strategic template selection. To mitigate the challenges associated with evaluating free-form open-ended VQA responses, we introduce a straightforward LLM-guided pre-processing technique.

  SelTDA (Self-Taught Data Augmentation) is a strategy for finetuning large vision language models on small-scale VQA datasets. It generates question-answer pseudolabels directly conditioned on an image, allowing us to pseudolabel unlabeled images. We describe a series of experiments showing that our self-taught data augmentation increases robustness to adversarially searched questions.
