Vision And Text Transformer For Predicting Answerability On Visual Question Answering

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces VT-Transformer, a model that predicts answerability scores for Visual Question Answering by treating the task as a regression problem rather than a binary classification. It leverages visual and textual features within a Transformer architecture and demonstrates improved performance and robustness on the VizWiz 2020 dataset compared to existing baselines.

A Visual Question Answering Model to Automate Nondestructive Evaluation Image Analysis

This article presents a Visual Question Answering (VQA) model tailored for nondestructive evaluation (NDE) image analysis. The system combines a ResNet‑50 image encoder with a GPT‑2 language generator, allowing inspectors to ask targeted questions such as "Is there a crack?" or "Where is the defect located?" and receive precise answers. By facilitating direct question‑and‑answer interactions, the VQA model aims to improve inspection efficiency, reduce errors, and enhance usability in field scenarios.

Comparative Study of Domain-adapted VLMs for General Document Visual Question Answering

Document Visual Question Answering (DocVQA) presents a complex multimodal challenge, requiring models to exploit visual, textual, and layout information from documents. Although Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable performance in text-vision tasks, their robustness and transferability to different document domains remains underexplored.

Not Another Text Benchmark: Putting the "Visual" Back in Visual Question Answering for Large Video Models

The paper introduces three new vision‑centric evaluation benchmarks—temporal frame retrieval, video future prediction, and causal memory distortion—to assess visual question answering in large video models. Unlike traditional benchmarks that rely on text-based multiple choice questions, these tasks require models to reason directly from visual inputs. The authors find that current state‑of‑the‑art models struggle with visual queries, highlighting a gap in visual understanding that future research should address.
