  Visual Question Answering (VQA) has attracted a lot of attention in both
Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing communities, not least because
it offers insight into the relationships between two important sources of
information. Current datasets, and the models built upon them, have focused on
questions which are answerable by direct analysis of the question and image
alone. The set of such questions that require no external information to answer
is interesting, but very limited. It excludes questions which require common
sense, or basic factual knowledge to answer, for example. Here we introduce
FVQA, a VQA dataset which requires, and supports, much deeper reasoning. FVQA
only contains questions which require external information to answer.
  We thus extend a conventional visual question answering dataset, which
contains image-question-answerg triplets, through additional
image-question-answer-supporting fact tuples. The supporting fact is
represented as a structural triplet, such as <Cat,CapableOf,ClimbingTrees>.
  We evaluate several baseline models on the FVQA dataset, and describe a novel
model which is capable of reasoning about an image on the basis of supporting
facts.
