Abstract：
This report aims to explore transformer based attention models in the field of visual question answering (VQA). In recent years, with the development of deep learning technology, visual question answering systems have shown enormous application potential in fields such as human-computer interaction and smart homes. Transformer based attention model, as an advanced technology, has significant advantages in handling visual problems and providing accurate answers.
