In this paper, inspired by the successes of visionlanguage pre-trained models and the benefits from training with adversarial attacks, we present a novel transformerbased cross-modal fusion modeling by incorporating the both notions for VQA challenge 2021. Specifically, the proposed model is on top of the architecture of VinVL model [19], and the adversarial training strategy [4] is applied to make the model robust and generalized. Moreover, two implementation tricks are also used in our system
