• Abstract summary: In real-world reference resolution, a system must ground the verbal information that appears in user interactions to the visual information observed in egocentric views. We propose a multimodal reference resolution task and construct a Japanese Conversation dataset for Real-world Reference Resolution (J-CRe3) Our dataset contains egocentric video and dialogue audio of real-world conversations between two people acting as a master and an assistant robot at home.

• Abstract: Understanding expressions that refer to the physical world is crucial for such human-assisting systems in the real world, as robots that must perform actions that are expected by users. In real-world reference resolution, a system must ground the verbal information that appears in user interactions to the visual information observed in egocentric views. To this end, we propose a multimodal reference resolution task and construct a Japanese Conversation dataset for Real-world Reference Resolution (J-CRe3). Our dataset contains egocentric video and dialogue audio of real-world conversations between two people acting as a master and an assistant robot at home. The dataset is annotated with crossmodal tags between phrases in the utterances and the object bounding boxes in the video frames. These tags include indirect reference relations, such as predicate-argument structures and bridging references as well as direct reference relations. We also constructed an experimental model and clarified the challenges in multimodal reference resolution tasks.

• 'What are you referring to?' Evaluating the Ability of Multi-Modal Dialogue Models to Process Clarificational Exchanges [65.03196674816772]
  Referential ambiguities arise in dialogue when a referring expression does not uniquely identify the intended referent for the addressee. Addressees usually detect such ambiguities immediately and work with the speaker to repair it using meta-communicative, Clarification Exchanges (CE): a Clarification Request (CR) and a response. Here, we argue that the ability to generate and respond to CRs imposes specific constraints on the architecture and objective functions of multi-modal, visually grounded dialogue models.

  Vision systems to see and reason about the compositional nature of visual scenes are fundamental to understanding our world. The models learned to bridge the gap between such modalities coupled with large-scale training data facilitate contextual reasoning, generalization, and prompt capabilities at test time. The output of such models can be modified through human-provided prompts without retraining, e.g., segmenting a particular object by providing a bounding box, having interactive dialogues by asking questions about an image or video scene or manipulating the robot's behavior through language instructions.

  Natural Language Understanding (NLU) and Natural Language Generation (NLG) are the two critical components of every conversational system. We propose an end-to-end framework with the capability to extract necessary slot values from the utterance. We employ a multimodal hierarchical encoder using pre-trained DialoGPT to provide a stronger context for both tasks.

  We propose a novel mixture-of-expert transformer RoME that disentangles the text and the video into three levels. We utilize a transformer-based attention mechanism to fully exploit visual and text embeddings at both global and local levels. Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on the YouCook2 and MSR-VTT datasets.

  We consider the task of visual grounding, where the agent segments an object from a crowded scene given a natural language description. Modern holistic approaches to visual grounding usually ignore language structure and struggle to cover generic domains. We introduce a fully decoupled modular framework for compositional visual grounding of entities, attributes, and spatial relations.
