• Abstract: Visual Question Answering (VQA) is the task of answering a question about an image and requires processing multimodal input and reasoning to obtain the answer. Modular solutions that use declarative representations within the reasoning component have a clear advantage over end-to-end trained systems regarding interpretability. The downside is that crafting the rules for such a component can be an additional burden on the developer. We address this challenge by presenting an approach for declarative knowledge distillation from Large Language Models (LLMs). Our method is to prompt an LLM to extend an initial theory on VQA reasoning, given as an answer-set program, to meet the requirements of the VQA task. Examples from the VQA dataset are used to guide the LLM, validate the results, and mend rules if they are not correct by using feedback from the ASP solver. We demonstrate that our approach works on the prominent CLEVR and GQA datasets. Our results confirm that distilling knowledge from LLMs is in fact a promising direction besides data-driven rule learning approaches.

• Large Vision-Language Models for Remote Sensing Visual Question Answering [0.0]
  Remote Sensing Visual Question Answering (RSVQA) is a challenging task that involves interpreting complex satellite imagery to answer natural language questions. Traditional approaches often rely on separate visual feature extractors and language processing models, which can be computationally intensive and limited in their ability to handle open-ended questions. We propose a novel method that leverages a generative Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM) to streamline the RSVQA process.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) demonstrate impressive reasoning ability and the maintenance of world knowledge.

We design a framework that enables LLMs to proactively ask relevant questions to unveil more details in the image.

Then, the candidate answers associated with their confidence scores acting as answer integritys are fed into LLMs.
