This paper proposes a novel approach to abstract visual reasoning, building upon recent advancements in slot-based methods and relational abstraction. By combining these strengths with the scalability of Transformers, the authors develop Slot Abstractors, a new model that excels at tasks involving multiple objects and relations. The approach achieves state-of-the-art performance across four abstract visual reasoning benchmarks, as well as a real-world image-based task.

This paper helps us understand how computers can be better at solving problems that involve patterns and relationships between things they see. It’s like teaching a computer to recognize when two objects are connected in some way, even if it’s not obvious. The authors combine different techniques to create a new model called Slot Abstractors, which is really good at this type of task. They test it on lots of examples and show that it performs better than other methods.
