|
Since its inception by **Alan Turing** in 1950, the **Turing Test** has been a fundamental benchmark for |
|
evaluating machine intelligence against human standards. As technology evolves, so too must the criteria |
|
for assessing AI. The **Visual Turing Test** represents a modern extension that includes visual cognition |
|
within the scope of AI evaluation. At the forefront of this advancement is **Visual Question Answering |
|
(VQA)**, a field that challenges AI systems to perceive, comprehend, and articulate insights about |
|
visual inputs in natural language. This progression reflects the complex interplay between perception |
|
and cognition that characterizes human intelligence, positioning VQA as a crucial metric for gauging |
|
AI’s ability to emulate human-like understanding. |
|
|
|
Mature VQA systems hold transformative potential across various domains. In robotics, VQA systems can |
|
enhance autonomous decision-making by enabling robots to interpret and respond to visual cues. In |
|
medical imaging and diagnosis, VQA systems can assist healthcare professionals by accurately |
|
interpreting complex medical images and providing insightful answers to diagnostic questions, thereby |
|
enhancing both the speed and accuracy of medical assessments. In manufacturing, VQA systems can optimize |
|
quality control processes by enabling automated systems to identify defects and ensure product |
|
consistency with minimal human intervention. These advancements underscore the importance of developing |
|
robust VQA capabilities, as they push the boundaries of the Visual Turing Test and bring us closer to |
|
achieving true human-like AI cognition. |
|
|
|
Unlike other vision-language tasks, VQA requires many CV sub-tasks to be solved in the process, |
|
including: **Object recognition**, **Object detection**, **Attribute classification**, **Scene |
|
classification**, **Counting**, **Activity recognition**, **Spatial relationships among objects**, |
|
and **Commonsense reasoning**. These VQA tasks often do not require external factual knowledge and only |
|
in rare cases require common-sense reasoning. Furthermore, VQA models cannot derive additional knowledge |
|
from existing VQA datasets should a question require it, therefore **Knowledge-Based Visual Question |
|
Answering (KB-VQA)** has been introduced. KB-VQA is a relatively new extension to VQA with datasets |
|
representing a knowledge-based VQA task where the visual question cannot be answered without external |
|
knowledge, where the essence of this task is centred around knowledge acquisition and integration with |
|
the visual contents of the image. |

This application showcases the advanced capabilities of the KB-VQA model, empowering users to seamlessly |
|
upload images, pose questions, and obtain answers derived from both visual and textual data. |
|
By leveraging sophisticated Multimodal Learning techniques, this project bridges the gap between visual |
|
perception and linguistic interpretation, effectively merging these modalities to provide coherent and |
|
contextually relevant responses. This research not only showcases the cutting-edge progress in artificial |
|
intelligence but also pushes the boundaries of AI systems towards passing the **Visual Turing Test**, where |
|
machines exhibit **human-like** understanding and reasoning in processing and responding to visual |
|
information. |
