On the Importance of Karaka Framework in Multi-modal Grounding

Sai Kiran Gorthi, Radhika Mamidi

Computational Paninian Grammar model helps in decoding a natural language expression as a series of modifier-modified relations and therefore facilitates in identifying dependency relations closer to language (context) semantics compared to the usual Stanford dependency relations. However, the importance of this CPG dependency scheme has not been studied in the context of multi-modal vision and language applications. At IIIT Hyderabad, we plan to perform a novel study to explore the potential advantages and disadvantages of CPG framework in a vision-language navigation task setting, a popular and challenging multi-modal grounding task.
