- Despite the remarkable advancements in Visual Question Answering (VQA), the challenge of mitigating the language bias introduced by textual information remains unresolved. Previous approaches capture language bias from a coarse-grained perspective. However, the finer-grained information within a sentence, such as context and keywords, can result in different biases. Due to the ignorance of fine-grained information, most existing methods fail to sufficiently capture language bias. In this paper, we propose a novel causal intervention training scheme named CIBi to eliminate language bias from a finer-grained perspective. Specifically, we divide the language bias into context bias and keyword bias. We employ causal intervention and contrastive learning to eliminate context bias and improve the multi-modal representation. Additionally, we design a new question-only branch based on counterfactual generation to distill and eliminate keyword bias. Experimental results illustrate that CIBi is applicable to various VQA models, yielding competitive performance.
