Hypergraph Transformer: Weakly-supervised Multi-hop Reasoning for Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering

Source code for ACL 2022 paper: "Hypergraph Transformer: Weakly-supervised Multi-hop Reasoning for Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering", Yu-Jung Heo, Eun-Sol Kim, Woo Suk Choi, and Byoung-Tak Zhang

To answer complex questions requiring multi-hop reasoning under weak supervision is considered as a challenging problem since i) no supervision is given to the reasoning process and ii) high-order semantics of multi-hop knowledge facts need to be captured. In this paper, we introduce a concept of hypergraph to encode high-level semantics of a question and a knowledge base, and to learn high-order associations between them. The proposed model, Hypergraph Transformer, constructs a question hypergraph and a query-aware knowledge hypergraph, and infers an answer by encoding inter-associations between two hypergraphs and intra-associations in both hypergraph itself.

Requirements

This code runs on Python 3.7 and PyTorch 1.5.1. We recommend using Anaconda to install all dependencies.

git clone https://github.com/YuJungHeo/kbvqa-public.git
conda env create --file environment.yml --name kbvqa

Setup

Download preprocessed KVQA, PQ-{2H, 3H, M}, PQL-{2H, 3H, M}, FVQA datasets.

bash download.sh

Training

Train on KVQA dataset

  • --cfg specifies a configuration yaml file.
  • --q_opt specifies a question type among original (ORG) and paraphrased (PRP).
  • --n_hop specifies a number of graph walk (e.g., 1-hop, 2-hop, and 3-hop).
# ORG, 3-hop on oracle setting
python main.py --model_name ht --cfg ht_kvqa --n_hop 3 --q_opt org --lr 0.00001 --exp_name ht_kvqa_org_3hop

Train on PathQuestions (PQ) dataset

# PQ-2H 
python main.py --data_name pq --model_name ht --cfg ht_pq2h --n_hop 2 --num_workers 2 --lr 0.0001 --abl_ans_fc --exp_name ht_pq2h

Train on Fact-based VQA (FVQA) dataset

# There are five splits of train and test dataset. For split {0-4},
python main.py --data_name fvqa_sp{0-4} --model_name ht --cfg ht_fvqa --n_hop 1 --num_workers 0 --lr 0.0001 --wd 0.00001 --exp_name ht_fvqa_sp{0-4}

Evaluation

We release the trained model checkpoints (1-hop, 2-hop, 3-hop on ORG and PRP questions) that we have used for our experiments on KVQA dataset.

python main.py --model_name ht --cfg ht_kvqa --n_hop 3 --q_opt org --exp_name ht_kvqa_org_3hop_dist --inference

# for phraphrased (PRP) questions on oracle setting in Table 1
