Inspired by the psychology term "affordance" and its applications in Human-Robot interaction, we propose an object affordance-based natural language visual grounding architecture to ground intention-related natural language queries. Formally, we first present an attention-based multi-visual features fusion network to detect object affordances from RGB images.
