This paper presents a dialog-like reasoning method to maintain reasoning consistency in answering a compositional question and its sub-questions. By integrating the reasoning processes for the sub-questions into the reasoning process for the compositional question like a dialog task, and using a consistency constraint to penalize inconsistent answer predictions, the effectiveness of the method is demonstrated through experimental results.
A compositional question refers to a question that contains multiple visual concepts (e.g., objects, attributes, and relationships) and requires compositional reasoning to answer. Existing VQA models can answer a compositional question well, but cannot work well in terms of reasoning consistency in answering the compositional question and its sub-questions. For example, a compositional question for an image is: Are there any elephants to the right of the white bird? and one of its sub-questions is Is any bird visible in the scene?. The models may answer yes to the compositional question, but no to the sub-question. This paper presents a dialog-like reasoning method for maintaining reasoning consistency in answering a compositional question and its sub-questions. Our method integrates the reasoning processes for the sub-questions into the reasoning process for the compositional question like a dialog task, and uses a consistency constraint to penalize inconsistent answer predictions. In order to enable quantitative evaluation of reasoning consistency, we construct a GQASub dataset based on the well-organized GQA dataset. Experimental results on the GQA dataset and the GQA-Sub dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.
