MAJOR PROJECT :
• Objective : MultiModal Feature Wise Attention Model for Visual Question Answering: (Jun’21-Present)
Guide: Prof Biplab Baneerjee (CSRE), Prof Leena Vachhani (SysCon), IIT Bombay
◦ Objective : Develop a deep learning based model capable of extracting Semantic discriminative features
for image and question and combine Visual and textual image features to guide answer prediction.
◦ OngoingWork : Training a deep learning model using CNN(VGG-NET) model to get semantic features of
significant image region and using RNN(LSTM) for extracting textual features.
◦ Concatenating this CNN and RNN models for answer prediction using MS-COCO Dataset.
◦ Future work : Introduce feature wise attention mechanism to learn cross feature wise attention between
image and question modalities.
