Visual Dialog (VisDial) dataset contains human annotated questions based on images of MS COCO dataset. This dataset was developed by pairing two subjects on Amazon Mechanical Turk to chat about an image. One person was assigned the job of a ‘questioner’ and the other person acted as an ‘answerer’. The questioner sees only the text description of an image (i.e., an image caption from MS COCO dataset) and the original image remains hidden to the questioner. Their task is to ask questions about this hidden image to “imagine the scene better”. The answerer sees the image, caption and answers the questions asked by the questioner. The two of them can continue the conversation by asking and answering questions for 10 rounds at max.

Current visual question answering (VQA) tasks mainly consider answering human-annotated questions for natural images in the daily-life context. Icon question answering (IconQA) is a benchmark which aims to highlight the importance of abstract diagram understanding and comprehensive cognitive reasoning in real-world diagram word problems. For this benchmark, a large-scale IconQA dataset is built that consists of three sub-tasks: multi-image-choice, multi-text-choice, and filling-in-the-blank. Compared to existing VQA benchmarks, IconQA requires not only perception skills like object recognition and text understanding, but also diverse cognitive reasoning skills, such as geometric reasoning, commonsense reasoning, and arithmetic reasoning.

RecipeQA is a dataset for multimodal comprehension of cooking recipes. It consists of over 36K question-answer pairs automatically generated from approximately 20K unique recipes with step-by-step instructions and images. Each question in RecipeQA involves multiple modalities such as titles, descriptions or images, and working towards an answer requires (i) joint understanding of images and text, (ii) capturing the temporal flow of events, and (iii) making sense of procedural knowledge.

WHOOPS! Is a dataset and benchmark for visual commonsense. The dataset is comprised of purposefully commonsense-defying images created by designers using publicly-available image generation tools like Midjourney. It contains commonsense-defying image from a wide range of reasons, deviations from expected social norms and everyday knowledge.

This dataset is collected via the WinoGAViL game to collect challenging vision-and-language associations. Inspired by the popular card game Codenames, a “spymaster” gives a textual cue related to several visual candidates, and another player has to identify them.

PACS (Physical Audiovisual CommonSense) is the first audiovisual benchmark annotated for physical commonsense attributes. PACS contains a total of 13,400 question-answer pairs, involving 1,377 unique physical commonsense questions and 1,526 videos. The dataset provides new opportunities to advance the research field of physical reasoning by bringing audio as a core component of this multimodal problem.

General-purpose Visual Understanding Evaluation (G-VUE) is a comprehensive benchmark covering the full spectrum of visual cognitive abilities with four functional domains -- Perceive, Ground, Reason, and Act. The four domains are embodied in 11 carefully curated tasks, from 3D reconstruction to visual reasoning and manipulation.

Recent times have witnessed an increasing number of applications of deep neural networks towards solving tasks that require superior cognitive abilities, e.g., playing Go, generating art, ChatGPT, etc. Such a dramatic progress raises the question: how generalizable are neural networks in solving problems that demand broad skills? To answer this question, we propose SMART: a Simple Multimodal Algorithmic Reasoning Task (and the associated SMART-101 dataset) for evaluating the abstraction, deduction, and generalization abilities of neural networks in solving visuo-linguistic puzzles designed specifically for children of younger age (6--8). Our dataset consists of 101 unique puzzles; each puzzle comprises a picture and a question, and their solution needs a mix of several elementary skills, including pattern recognition, algebra, and spatial reasoning, among others. To train deep neural networks, we programmatically augment each puzzle to 2,000 new instances; each instance varied in appea
A fundamental component of human vision is our ability to parse complex visual scenes and judge the relations between their constituent objects. AI benchmarks for visual reasoning have driven rapid progress in recent years with state-of-the-art systems now reaching human accuracy on some of these benchmarks. Yet, there remains a major gap between humans and AI systems in terms of the sample efficiency with which they learn new visual reasoning tasks. Humans' remarkable efficiency at learning has been at least partially attributed to their ability to harness compositionality -- allowing them to efficiently take advantage of previously gained knowledge when learning new tasks. Here, we introduce a novel visual reasoning benchmark, Compositional Visual Relations (CVR), to drive progress towards the development of more data-efficient learning algorithms. We take inspiration from fluidic intelligence and non-verbal reasoning tests and describe a novel method for creating compositions of abs
