Abstract
Aspects of the current subject matter are directed to a system in which knowledge graphs are incorporated with visual question answering. A knowledge graph is integrated into a visual question answering system to provide additional knowledge from one or more sources to answer a question about an image. Aspects of the current subject matter are directed to a neural network approach that combines methods of image feature extraction and questions processing with a neural network, such as a graph neural network, that operates on knowledge graphs. The graph neural network takes input vector representations of the nodes as inputs and combines them according to their relationships into question-specific representations. The question-specific representations are then processed with the image features and the question features to generate an answer.
