Introduced by Hao Tan et al. in LXMERT: Learning Cross-Modality Encoder Representations from Transformers

archive 2025-07-28 Description, source and code snippet are the archive's method entry.

LXMERT is a model for learning vision-and-language cross-modality representations. It consists of a Transformer model that consists three encoders: object relationship encoder, a language encoder, and a cross-modality encoder. The model takes two inputs: image with its related sentence. The images are represented as a sequence of objects, whereas each sentence is represented as sequence of words. By combining the self-attention and cross-attention layers the model is able to generated language representation, image representations, and cross-modality representations from the input. The model is pre-trained with image-sentence pairs via five pre-training tasks: masked language modeling, masked object prediction, cross-modality matching, and image questions answering. These tasks help the model to learn both intra-modality and cross-modality relationships.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (40 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
