Transformers as Soft Reasoners over Language
2020
Proceedings of the Twenty-Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence
These findings are significant as it suggests a new role for transformers, namely as limited "soft theorem provers" operating over explicit theories in language. ...
We train transformers to reason (or emulate reasoning) over these sentences using synthetically generated data. ...
For languages such as English and Chinese, there exist manually labeled datasets on a variety of tasks, trained over which neural models for NLP can rival human performance. ...

Weak Supervision helps Emergence of Word-Object Alignment and improves Vision-Language Tasks
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
The large adoption of the self-attention (i.e. transformer model) and BERT-like training principles has recently resulted in a number of high performing models on a large panoply of vision-and-language ...
In particular , we integrate an object-word alignment loss into SOTA vision-language reasoning models and evaluate it on two tasks VQA and Language-driven Comparison of Images. ...
scores are normalized over the objects such as: n objects j A * ij = 1 (18) Hence the ground truth soft alignment score A * i of word si is a probability distribution over the set of visual objects detected ...

Distilled Dual-Encoder Model for Vision-Language Understanding
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We propose a cross-modal attention distillation framework to train a dual-encoder model for vision-language understanding tasks, such as visual reasoning and visual question answering. ...
However, the shallow interaction module used in dual-encoder models is insufficient to handle complex vision-language understanding tasks. ...
Vision-Language Understanding For visionlanguage understanding tasks such as visual reasoning and VQA, we fine-tune the student model with cross-modal attention distillation and soft labels losses. ...
