Appendix for " Introspective Distillation for Robust Question Answering " A Causal QA Model Figure A1: Causal graph for QA

Figure A1 shows the causal graph for QA. We use indirect effects as the predictions of OOD teachers. All the used datasets are open-sourced for research use. We train the teacher model following the source codes. For the student model, we use the same VQA main branch, the baseline model UpDn, as implementation.
