This paper addresses the challenge of Visual Question Answering (VQA) in the medical domain, which requires combining computer vision, natural language processing, and knowledge representation. The authors present a novel approach to effectively represent radiology images and jointly learn multimodal representations, surpassing existing methods. They innovate by augmenting the SLAKE dataset, enabling their model to respond to diverse questions beyond immediate image content. The model achieves a top-1 accuracy of 79.55% with a less complex architecture, comparable to current state-of-the-art models.

This paper helps doctors and computers work together better. It’s about teaching computers to understand images from medical tests and answer questions based on those images. The researchers created a new way for computers to learn from these images and questions, which is much more effective than previous methods. They also made the computer program smarter by giving it more information to learn from. This new approach can be used in hospitals to help doctors make better decisions.
