Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide a zero-shot visual question answering (VQA) framework, which conjoins foundation network models with zero additional training. A first image and a question relating to the first image are received. The first image is divided into a plurality of image patches. A plurality of relevant image patches that are relevant to the question are determined, using a first neural network model, from the plurality of image patches. A plurality of image captions are generated, using a second neural network model, based on the plurality of relevant image patches. An answer to the question is generated based on the plurality of image captions.
