Abstract

Visual question answering by using information from multiple modalities has attracted more and more attention in recent years. However, it is a very challenging task, as the visual content and natural language have quite different statistical properties. In this work, we present a method called Adversarial Multimodal Network (AMN) to better understand video stories for question answering. In AMN, we propose to learn multimodal feature representations by finding a more coherent subspace for video clips and the corresponding texts (e.g., subtitles and questions) based on generative adversarial networks. Moreover, a self-attention mechanism is developed to enforce our newly introduced consistency constraint in order to preserve the self-correlation between the visual cues of the original video clips in the learned multimodal representations. Extensive experiments on the benchmark MovieQA and TVQA datasets show the effectiveness of our proposed AMN over other published state-of-the-art methods.
