Dissecting Multimodality in VideoQA Transformer Models by Impairing Modality Fusion

QUAG and QUAG-attention are variants of self-attention that impair specific modality interactions in multimodal models. The relative drop in performance with respect to the unperturbed model is representative of

We provide a google colab demo to test QUAG and QUAG-attention and apply it to custom models in QUAG_QUAGAttention_Demo.ipynb

We provide the scripts to curate CLAVI dataset from Charades. CLAVI contains complement questions and videos, and the models are thoroughly evaluated using consistent accuracies. The detailed steps of curation can be found in /data/DATA.md
