Abstract

In view of the problems of high training complexity and slow inference speed involved by the current mainstream visual question answering task which uses regional features as image representations, this paper proposed a convolutional network(composite visionlinguistic ConvNet, CVlCN) based on composite visual language to extract the image features in visual question answering tasks. The proposed method represented image features and problem semantics into composite picture-text features through composite learning, and then calculated the attention distribution of composite picture-text features from space and channels to selectively retain visual information related to problem semantics. The experimental results show that, on the VQA-v2 dataset, the test accuracy of the proposed method on the visual question answering task is obviously improved, and the overall accuracy is 64.4%. And the model has low computational complexity and fast inference speed.
