Popis: “A Picture is worth a thousand words”. Given an image, humans are able to deduce various cause-and-effect captions of past, current, and future events beyond the image. The task of visual commonsense generation has the aim of generating three cause-and-effect captions for a given image: (1) what needed to happen before, (2) what is the current intent, and (3) what will happen after. However, this task is challenging for machines, owing to two limitations: existing approaches (1) directly utilize conventional vision–language transformers to learn relationships between input modalities and (2) ignore relations among target cause-and-effect captions, but consider each caption independently. Herein, we propose Cause-and-Effect BART (CE-BART), which is based on (1) a structured graph reasoner that captures intra- and inter-modality relationships among visual and textual representations and (2) a cause-and-effect generator that generates cause-and-effect captions by considering the causal relations among inferences. We demonstrate the validity of CE-BART on the VisualCOMET and AVSD benchmarks. CE-BART achieved SOTA performance on both benchmarks, while an extensive ablation study and qualitative analysis demonstrated the performance gain and improved interpretability.
