  While building a low-resource non-English VQA approach has several benefits of its own, a multilingual VQA task is interesting because it will help create a generic approach/model that works decently well across several languages **With the aim of democratizing such a challenging yet interesting task, in this project, we focus on Mutilingual Visual Question Answering (MVQA)**. Our intention here is to provide a Proof-of-Concept with our simple CLIP-Vision-BERT baseline which leverages a multilingual checkpoint with pre-trained image encoders. Our model currently supports for four languages - **English, French, German and Spanish**.

- We follow the two-staged training approach, our pre-training task being text-only Masked Language Modeling (MLM). Our pre-training dataset comes from Conceptual-12M dataset where we use mBART-50 for translation. Our fine-tuning dataset is taken from the VQAv2 dataset and its translation is done using MarianMT models.

- Our checkpoints achieve a **validation accuracy of 0.69 on our MLM** task, while our fine-tuned model is able to achieve a **validation accuracy of 0.49 on our multilingual VQAv2 validation set**. With better captions, hyperparameter-tuning, and further training, we expect to see higher performance.
