The primary purpose of this workshop is to hold the 2nd edition of the Visual Question Answering Challenge on the <a href="http://visualqa.org/download.html">2nd edition (v2.0) of the VQA dataset</a> introduced in <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1612.00837"> Goyal et al., CVPR 2017</a>. The <a href="http://visualqa.org/vqa_v1_challenge.html">1st edition of the VQA Challenge</a> was organized in CVPR 2016 on the <a href="http://visualqa.org/vqa_v1_download.html"> 1st edition (v1.0) of the VQA dataset</a> introduced in <a href="http://arxiv.org/abs/1505.00468"> Antol et al., ICCV 2015</a>. VQA v2.0 dataset is a more balanced version of VQA v1.0 which significantly reduces the language biases. VQA v2.0 is about twice the size of VQA v1.0.
<br>
<br>Our idea in creating this new “balanced” VQA dataset is the following: For every (image, question, answer) triplet (I,Q,A) in the VQA v1.0 dataset, we identify an image I’ that has an answer A’ to Q such that A and A’ are different. Both the old (I,Q,A) and the new (I’,Q,A’) triplets are present in the VQA v2.0 dataset balancing the VQA v1.0 dataset on a per question basis. Since I and I’ are semantically similar, a VQA model will have to understand the subtle differences between I and I’ to provide the right answer to both images. It cannot succeed as easily by making “guesses” based on the language alone.
<br>
<br>This workshop will provide an opportunity to benchmark algorithms on VQA v2.0 and to identify state-of-the-art algorithms that need to truly understand the image content in order to perform well on this balanced VQA dataset. A secondary goal of this workshop is to continue to bring together researchers interested in Visual Question Answering to share state-of-the-art approaches, best practices, and future directions in multi-modal AI.
<br>
<br>In addition to invited talks from established researchers, we invite submissions of extended abstracts of at most 2 pages describing work in the areas relevant to Visual Question Answering such as: Visual Question Answering, (Textual) Question Answering, Dialog, Commonsense knowledge, Video Question Answering, Image/Video Captioning, Language + Vision. Accepted submissions will be presented as posters at the workshop. The workshop will be held on July 26th, 2017 at the <a href="http://cvpr2017.thecvf.com/">IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2017</a>.
