Wiki-PRF: A Three-Stage Framework for Knowledge-Based Visual Question Answering
Wiki-PRF is a novel 7 billion parameter multimodal framework developed by hongyuyang23casia, accepted at NeurIPS 2025, specifically designed for Knowledge-Based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA). It addresses the challenges of poor multimodal queries and noisy retrieved content often found in traditional Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems by implementing a sophisticated three-stage approach.
Key Capabilities
- Dynamic Multimodal Processing: Utilizes vision-language tools to generate precise, grounded queries from visual inputs.
- Integrated Knowledge Retrieval: Combines both visual and text features to efficiently retrieve relevant knowledge from external sources.
- Reinforcement Learning-based Filtering: Employs an RL mechanism to filter out irrelevant or low-quality retrieved information, enhancing answer accuracy and consistency.
- State-of-the-Art Performance: Achieves new state-of-the-art results on challenging KB-VQA benchmarks such as E-VQA and InfoSeek, demonstrating superior performance compared to other zero-shot MLLMs and retrieval-augmented models.
Good for
- Complex Visual Question Answering: Ideal for applications requiring models to understand images and answer questions that necessitate external knowledge.
- Reducing Retrieval Noise: Particularly effective in scenarios where retrieved information might contain irrelevant or misleading content.
- Research in Multimodal AI: Serves as a strong baseline and framework for further research in knowledge-based visual understanding and retrieval-augmented generation.
