Recent advances in the areas of Multimodal Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have led to the development of challenging tasks at the intersection of Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, and Robotics. Whereas many approaches and previous survey pursuits have characterised one…
We introduce SPARTA, a novel neural retrieval method that shows great promise in performance, generalization, and interpretability for open-domain question answering. Unlike many neural ranking methods that use dense vector nearest neighbor search, SPARTA learns a sparse representation that can be e…
Text-to-image retrieval is an essential task in cross-modal information retrieval, i.e., retrieving relevant images from a large and unlabelled dataset given textual queries. In this paper, we propose VisualSparta, a novel (Visual-text Sparse Transformer Matching) model that shows significant improv…
